- 5513: Billy Budd By Herman Melville
- ... believe that through this book, Melville is telling us that we need to strike some kind of balance between these two ideas; we need to have morality and virtue; we need to be in the world, but not of the world.

Billy is the focal point of the book and the single person whom ... who are truly ready and without regret, as Billy was. The question, then, is presented. Innocence or wisdom?

- 5518: Comments On This Be The Verse
- ... description that Larkin uses is a very typical description of what is considered a modern household, again implying that nothing is anyone's fault, but that we are all contributing to "fucking up" of the world. The third stanza presents the problem in it's simplest form, and then provides the solution to the problem. The problem is stated on the first line, and the second line emphasizes the fact that this is a growing problem that seemingly can't be stopped. The last two lines of the poem then provide the solution: to stop reproducing. This is where Larkin says to the world that there is no way out of this problem.
