Never: A Handbook For The Uninitiated And Inexperienced Aspirants To Refined Society's Giddy Heights And Glittering Attainments

What a find. I am thrilled to be learning about these poems today and even though my language skills are poor, I am nonetheless fascinated to hear all about them.


I will pop the subtitles up asap.

Nearly 50,000 poems of the Tang have survived. The collection 'Three Hundred Tang Poems' was compiled around 1763. This is a great source of cultural history.Enjoy.

This is a great way to begin learning the poems and the language.

Many thanks to David Barnes for these great readings.
The Tang Dynasty (618 to 907) was a golden age of Chinese culture: religion and philosophy, painting and calligraphy, sculpture, architecture, and music all reached peaks of perfection. Poetry was the epitome of the arts.

wrap city on a windy night by t.s eliot red for librivox.org by nemo

12 o'clock along the reaches of the street held in a lunar synthesis whispering lunar incantations dissolve the floors of memory and all its clear relations its divisions and precisions every street lamp that i pass beats like a fatalistic drum and through the spaces of the dark midnight shakes the memory as a madman shakes a dead geranium half past one the street lamp sputtered the street lamp muttered the street lamp said regard that woman who hesitates towards you in the light of the door which opens on her like a grin you see the border of her dress is torn and stained with sand and you see the corner of your eye twist like a crooked pin the memory throws up high and dry a crowd of twisted things a twisted branch upon the beach eaten smooth and polished as if the world gave up the secret of its skeleton stiff and white a broken spring and factory yard rust that clings to the form that the strength has left hard and curled and ready to snap half past two the street lamp said remark the cat which flattens itself in the gutter slips out its tongue and devours a morsel of rancid butter so the hand of the child automatic slipped out and pocketed a toy that was running along the key i could see nothing behind that child's eye i've seen eyes in the street trying to peer through lighted shutters and a crab one afternoon in a pool an old crab with barnacles on his back gripped the end of a stick which i held him half past three the lamp sputtered the lamp muttered in the dark the lamp hummed regard the moon la lune god raccoon she winks a feeble eye she smiles into corners she smooths the hair of the grass the moon has lost her memory a washed out smallpox cracks her face her hand twisted paper rose that smells of dust and old cologne she is alone with all the old nocturnal smells that cross and cross across her brain the reminiscence comes of sunless dry geraniums and dust and crevices smells of chestnuts in the streets and female smells and shuddered rooms and cigarettes and corridors and cocktail smells and bars the lamp said four o'clock here's the number on the door memory you have the key the little lamp spreads a ring on the stair mount the bed is open the toothbrush hangs on the wall put your shoes at the door sleep prepare for life the last twist of the knife

it's pouring rain an awful cold it's so cold that the toothpaste rolls right off in your brush in the morning the captain has a cold in his nose he says he won't take the man out in such bad weather as today pay nothing against him mabel but i hope he has a cold all winter there's a hole in the tent over my cot when the water comes through on me i put a slicker over me last night the water made puddles in it then when i turned over they spilt out into my shoes this had me guessing mabel till finally i put on max glucose's shoes there instead of mine angus mckenzie had so many holes over his cot that looked like one of those safety fire sprinklers he got up last night and rigged his shelter so it's half the water hit it and run down into the next cot he's a bright fellow angus even if he is a foreigner the other day he had some medicine for a cold it says on the bottle that i was 17 alcohol he drank the whole thing right down so nobody couldn't get a hold of him i mean i'm awful sick but he says that's because he is used to it for such a long time me and him is going down next week to put in a stack of tonics it's awful hard to write letters mabel somebody's always falling over your feet or dragging something right over the paper if you've got it caught near the door like mine is and when you get going finally at about the fourth try some sergeant always comes in with a list and makes you check out something sometimes i go over to the ymca mabel but as soon as you get right in a bald headed fellow jumps up and says now fellows will all sing all the fellas watch right and looks up and says ah one thing in another i don't know who the bald headed fellow is they got one in every ymca they all look about alike i guess there's a regular issue there's always a bunch of fellas who don't seem to know why they came and they all started seeing it then i can't write no more do nothing so i come home and go to bed independent that's me all over mabel most of the taxis are swallowed up in the mud there's only two or three running now only the big strong fellas can get to town the cook says it's the old theory of the arrival of the fittest but i guess you don't know nothing about science mabel when i go to town i wrap my blouse in a newspaper if they know you're going they give you a list of things to get that looks like a chinese message to congress the time you go to come home you got so many bundles you look like one of those fellows in the funny papers everyone stands in the square looking for a hat rack waiting for the three taxis to come along when they see one they rush it like they do in the movies when the millionaire's cars run...

Perfect reading with a cup of tea.

preludes by t.s eliot red for librivox.org by nemo the winter evening settles down with smell of steaks and passageways six o'clock the burnt out ends of smoky days and now a gusty shower wraps the grimy scraps of withered leaves about your feet and newspapers from vacant lots the showers beat on broken blinds and chimney pots and at the corner of the street a lonely cab horse steams and stamps and then the lighting of the lamps the morning comes to consciousness of faint stale smells of beer from the sawdust trampled street with all its muddy feet that press to early coffee stands with the other masquerades the time resumes one thinks of all the hands that are raising dingy shades and a thousand furnished rooms you tossed a blanket from the bed you lay upon your back and waited you dozed and watched the night revealing the thousand sword images of which your soul was constituted they flickered against the ceiling when all the world came back and the light crept up between the shutters and you heard the sparrows and the gutters you had such a vision of the street as a street hardly understands sitting along the bed's edge where you curled the papers from your hair or clasped the yellow soles of feet in the palms of both soiled hands his soul stretched tight across the skies that fade behind a city block are trampled by insistent feet at four and five and six o'clock and short square fingers stuffing pipes and evening newspapers and eyes assured of certain certainties the conscience of a blackened street impatient to assume the world i am moved by fancies that are curled around these images and cling the notion of some infinitely gentle infinitely suffering thing wipe your hand across your mouth and laugh the worlds revolve like ancient women gathering fuel in vacant lots
