Billy Collins reading “The Lanyard.” Happy Mother’s Day everyone.
“She gave me life and milk from her breasts,
and I gave her a lanyard.
She nursed me in many a sick room,
lifted spoons of medicine to my lips,
laid cold face-cloths on my forehead,
and then led me out into the airy light
and taught me to walk and swim,
and I, in turn, presented her with a lanyard.
Here are thousands of meals, she said,
and here is clothing and a good education.
And here is your lanyard, I replied,
which I made with a little help from a counselor.”
Land Rover: A New Zealand commercial from 1969 - This ad is how you stir the loins of an off-road enthusiast.. Militant anthem-esque music, climbing hills, plowing through rivers, bushwacking in jungles, and a dead fucking serious narrative. Makes me want to eat a raw lion I killed with my bare hands..
I couldn’t agree more.
