Until this point I'm bored... I'm thinking, it's another of those
sad-old-man poems (sorry, Andrew!) But then we get some action and after
this point I just love the description, especially the bouncing tradesmen..=
.
that's so exactly right!

Would anything be lost by starting at this point?

Also it may be better to get rid of the Eliot bits, or maybe just quote him
once, at the beginning, if you still want that context.

The poem is I guess examining the experience of being older and consigned t=
o
the role of observer -- in contemporary suburban Australia. Would it be mor=
e
powerful to leave out the introspection? Simply to describe?

I'm not sure whether this poem wouldn't work better in the third person...
or perhaps rewrite it from old Marcia's point of view?

Thanks, Janet. Yes, it was a self-pitying moment masquerading as a poem.
I'll chop and add and chop and chip and chop and ... something will remain.
Third person is a good call - I'll try that. & no Eliot. Thanks again.
Andrew
(Yes, I'm looking after myself - and Jeanette has a short lease on me so I
can't venture far until after 10th - boo hoo.)

Subject: Robert Frost poem

An Old Man's Winter Night

All out of doors looked darkly in at him 
Through the thin frost, almost in separate stars, 
That gathers on the pane in empty rooms. 
What kept his eyes from giving back the gaze 
Was the lamp tilted near them in his hand. 
What kept him from remembering what it was 
That brought him to that creaking room was age. 
He stood with barrels round him -- at a loss. 
And having scared the cellar under him 
In clomping there, he scared it once again 
In clomping off; -- and scared the outer night, 
Which has its sounds, familiar, like the roar 
Of trees and crack of branches, common things, 
But nothing so like beating on a box. 
A light he was to no one but himself 
Where now he sat, concerned with he knew what, 
A quiet light, and then not even that. 
He consigned to the moon, such as she was, 
So late-arising, to the broken moon 
As better than the sun in any case 
For such a charge, his snow upon the roof, 
His icicles along the wall to keep; 
And slept. The log that shifted with a jolt 
Once in the stove, disturbed him and he shifted, 
And eased his heavy breathing, but still slept. 
One aged man -- one man -- can't keep a house, 
A farm, a countryside, or if he can, 
It's thus he does it of a winter night.

Robert Frost

[I used to teach this, quixotically if that's the word, to young students - 
before I was old.
Now I am old I have a new appreciation of it.
Max in Melbourne (summertime)]

Until this point I'm bored... I'm thinking, it's another of those
sad-old-man poems (sorry, Andrew!) But then we get some action and after
this point I just love the description, especially the bouncing tradesmen...
that's so exactly right!

Would anything be lost by starting at this point?

Also it may be better to get rid of the Eliot bits, or maybe just quote him
once, at the beginning, if you still want that context.

The poem is I guess examining the experience of being older and consigned to
the role of observer -- in contemporary suburban Australia. Would it be more
powerful to leave out the introspection? Simply to describe?

I'm not sure whether this poem wouldn't work better in the third person...
or perhaps rewrite it from old Marcia's point of view?

HTH, look after yourself
Janet

Yes, although my own poetic prefrences are at a remove from Frost, I do find
his ability to project psychological states impressive: here for instance
the 'clomping' to scare the 'outer night', the room creaking like old bones
and so on. His conservative image (and sometimes practice) is a barrier for
many (and an insidious attraction for others) but he's a true heir of the
Wordsworthian narrative of the selfd.
