Sad Anniversary
I'm thinking a lot about Jim Clark today, partly because it was almost exactly a year ago that he made his dramatic exit, and partly because the stores are full of Halloween trinkets and I remember how much he loved all that stuff...
"Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart, the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
the blood dimmed tide is loosed,
and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity."
--W.B. Yeats
