Was thinking of the Dante, inevitably, and Housman what with spring.

Mid-mosey down the tree ridge of our life-dream
I found myself at Hooters eating ice cream,
Saying: Now of my threescore years and ten
Half-seventy will not come again
And take from seventy years seven quarters of a score
It only leaves me seven score quarters more.
And since to look at things in bloom
I do not just surmise but have actually proved to myself that half-seventy years were little room,
About the Hooters I will go
Licking my cream sugar snow.
