		<title>Until Morning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[That villain Hook! Could I have guessed
That he would leave like all the rest?
Like Smee and Tootles, Nibs and Slightly,
One by one eloping nightly,
Back to parents, back to troubles,
Back to bath-times, soap, and bubbles,
Back to courting, girls! and grieving,
Back to growing-up; and leaving.
Tink and Wendy, Michael too,
But Captain Jas? Of all men? You?
I’ve paced the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Is That a Kiss?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Is that a kiss? And I was coy,
And blushed, and held your hand;
But you were just a little boy,
And could not understand.
Oh, Peter! And your wide blue eyes
Were seas whose depths my love could tell,
Your broken heart, your broken sighs,
And I alone to mend them well!
You loved me; but my heart was strange;
You could not [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8216;Twas Brillig</title>
		<description><![CDATA[No penguins had paraded yet,
We stood and watched the waiting crowd;
Your breath above the rainbow set,
For it was sunny-cold, and wet
With moisture shaken from the dewy clouds,
In little showers eager to impress
With all their mortal loveliness.
A leopard flashed like amber light,
A zebra cantered on;
The lion roared with rough delight
As squirrels squirted out of sight
Like lightly-startled [...]]]></description>

		<title>Life Unexamined</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The unexamined life is great,
It means not getting up till late,
And hiding wine stains under rugs,
And drinking Coke from coffee mugs.
The unexamined life? It rules!
Don&#8217;t go to work, don&#8217;t go to school,
Don&#8217;t go where you don&#8217;t wanna go,
Just stay and play some Mario.
The unexamined life is neat,
With time enough to type, and Tweet,
And eat a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bringing Out the Dead</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Most of my reviews are really about how much I know; or, if I don&#8217;t know anything, how unusually refined my emotional responses are. It is like shouting out the answers in class, the motive of information-sharing much less anterior than that of plain and simply showing off. But there are movies to which there [...]]]></description>

		<title>Masked and Anonymous</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Now that we&#8217;re all floating around the nub of things in a prevailing mood of postmodern detachment, I wonder how bad things have to get before we acknowledge that they are not simply an ironic pastiche of &#8216;bad&#8217; but actually, in and of themselves, terrible. When can we safely admit that a film is no [...]]]></description>

		<title>God&#8217;s Angry Man</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Half the fun of TV evangelism is in trying to accurately gauge how sincere the pastors actually are. Did they start out as conmen and crooks, only to find (as all great liars -and actors- do) that they had started to believe their own overblown self-sermonizing? Or were they true believers whose faith signposted the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Today, Tomorrow, Next Week</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In rivers, the falling, glockenspiel rain
Is music that comes from nowhere, like
Songs your heart sings to itself on days
Where the drum of the streets grows loud;
And I could drown in the world as if
My joy were as warm as the honeyed bee
That buzzes at night with fireflies
On the other side of the dark.

		<title>Cricket</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Those are all cricketers!&#8221; -Monty Python&#8217;s Flying Circus
In the grand old days, football management sims were just glorified spreadsheets, rows of numbers about how good your players were giving way to a screenshot of a football pitch on which would occasionally flash such bulletins as &#8220;HARTLEP&#8217;L 1 CREWE A 0&#8243; to the aural accompaniment of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mind the Milk Jug, Brady!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Something about that milk, it was like
A puddle of breath on the floor;
And the sound of the scattering shards had hardly
Died on the earth before
A life less perfect parted itself
Into a smaller doll;
And if it had been tragedy
The flaw would come before the fall;
Some things are broken once, and they
Are broken once and all.
