Funeral Blues
by : W.H. Auden
Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.
Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He Is Dead,
Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.
He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last for ever; I was wrong.
The stars are not wanted now: put out every one;
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood,
For nothing now can ever come to any good.
ini salah satu poem yang ada di film Four Weddings and A Funeral, gue baru nonton kira2 bulan Desember 2005, (yaaaolooo...kemana ajaa loeee secara ini film ngetopnya 1994, kekeke...) tp emang beneran baru nonton :D, trus ada scene dimana salah satu pasangan gay meninggal trus dibacain poem ini , kog situasinya seddeeeh banget, jadi waktu itu , gue mikir mo nyari poemnya, eh baru sekarang inget dan ketemu deh...
gak penting..:P
