And without moving her upper lips, like truly upper class Brits.

o yeah. nothing better then beautiful and precise english

exquisite. pure bliss!

She needs a EGOT

I hope so too :')❤

and that's about as good as it gets....

and that's pure perfection

Goodness, I actually know that High Holborn poem. And I have no clue at all where I've saved that file in my brain. 🤣

So safe and smug in our, screaming silence. Slipping serenely into our silent violence. It's never much fun, until you have won, but we all leave this world blithely burnt and shunned to travel into the beyond well done. She left me sick, as far as I can tell, slowly fading ensnared by her smallest swells. Pulled all along, dragged deep into a heap; led to tunnel into a desolate stretch left unpainted and blue. Torn like taffy, from your visage. Your body has no faith But, your mind left a message. Fade away blessed, triumphantly tingling. A sensation leaves us all interwoven, still intermingling, in sad repose, forever ringing. Carved and drawn slowly falling out from flaking flesh filtered throughout a delicate sieve in delicious distress you long to forget. In the midst of lilac darkness you begin anew, back to square one a lot of miles done yet nothing to remember, until next November, when skies mix into gray, and in our slumber we have nothing to say. Our symbiosis is atrocious as a notion... ...given to pure devotion. your words writ large, and spilled like potion... trickling slowly down deep into a bottomless ocean Yet, I cannot dismiss all of your distress flicked everlasting onto our canvas mess, made and laid, inspected, dissected and introspected. Made to be best, by the best, no less, and better on all occasion for mass persuasion. For no truer words ring out to find, you in the womb lying entranced resting, protesting, looking askance. Left lightly consumed, you make room to bloom, into your delicate space, A race I face, moving apace, in hurried haste. Blinded by starlight, searching in tune for a golden goon. A boon to whom? And you left me so soon. I must conclude, as we alight onto our brood that it would be rude and lewd to end confused so misconstrued eating fingerless food with sad attitudes crude and shrewd beaten and blued still even then I remain forever in the mood.

SAME!!! My all-time favorite was Helen Mirren reading the ending of Ulysses. ❤️

I'll never forget my very first e.e. cummings poem. I wrote (and actually made money) on poems since I was 11, but cummings... he was a game-changer! my sweet old etcetera aunt lucy during the recent war could and what is more did tell you just what everybody was fighting for, my sister Isabel created hundreds (and hundreds)of socks not to mention fleaproof earwarmers etcetera wristers etcetera, my mother hoped that I would die etcetera bravely of course my father used to become hoarse talking about how it was a privilege and if only he could meanwhile my self etcetera lay quietly in the deep mud et cetera (dreaming, et cetera, of Your smile eyes knees and of your Etcetera)

My favourite poem is "Ode: Intimations of Immortality" by William Wordsworth. It's too long for a KZfaq comment, so I'll just share my favorite portion: What though the radiance, which was once so bright be now forever taken from my sight Though nothing can bring back the hour of the splendor in the grass, the glory of the flower We will grieve not, rather find strength in what remains behind...

eddie panedi May I ask who wrote this please?

The guy's a savant

I love that he’s such a geek!!

It's all rehearsed.

It's usually because of one's family. If your parents are able to recite and you have poetry books at your family home, you probably too will be able to recite on cue.

cyranodb title?.. lol found it

oh yeah!

Sameeee I especially love listening to her speaking and telling stories

100% agreed to everything you said! She is so fascinating!

I’m a straight woman and I have a crush on her too! She’s utterly beguiling, and often very funny (see her interviews with Craig Ferguson and Graham Norton). Love her as Marla Singer in _Fight Club._ 😍 That said, I’m not a big fan of the fact she had an affair with Kenneth Branagh when he was married to Emma Thompson. But that’s more on him than her.

@@clothilde1623 Love her too! Don't think you're straight though...

Ann Pourqisuo Haha, I can see why you’d think so, but as much as I admire how gorgeous and talented she is, I would never want to, well, have ‘knowledge’ of her. Not my cuppa, alas. See, one can recognise and appreciate the beauty and allure of a person without wanting to experience it themselves. Personally I like tall dark men with dark eyes and hair and beards that I can feel brush on my face. Mmmm. That’s what ‘does it’ for me. But I think every (enlightened) adult can recognise what they find appealing in both men and women.

Wired Weird - she is!

@@raqueldobson1 Perceptive.

Raquel Dobson really?

Well firstly she is an aristocrat and I agree she does have a bohemian vibe.

Well she is both lol

Mireille Lebeau Address?

LOL! Stalker!

Sychlo Killent wat? european culture is very alike. compared to other continents

@@MT-eo6tq that doesn't make any sense if all europeans are different european americans are different from europeans as well

Never seen Fight Club?

If i remember correctly i think she played American in 'Big Fish' ...

Imagine thinking Europeans are one homogenous cultural group

Yes - that is one of my favorite movies of all time !!

I first saw her in Lady Jane when I was about fourteen or fifteen and I have liked her since. A Room with a View preceded Lady Jane, but I did not see that until quite a bit later (probably around the time of another Merchant/Ivory production with her in it: Howard's End).

Huh? Guy?

@@onlyplayaseattacoswiththei9433 Stephen Colbert.

@@o.b.7217 Oh 😂.....I was thinking..."I'm almost certain that's a woman". But you never know today lol

I meant Stephen Colbert

Oh. Interesting

@@KZfaqr-my2ky I can't tell if Stephen was being sarcastic though... I feel dumb.

start of 2 great careers in that film; Helena Bonham Carter and a certain Mr Daniel Day Lewis!

woah..... i see the resemblance now

God yeah. That makes sense now you mention it.

Now I really want that.

Great! I will watch it if she was in the movie xD

LOL!

An interesting view on the case! Eye opening!

e.e. cummings wrote many poems like that. My high school English teacher kept telling me that I couldn't recite his poems in class due to their nature. My favorite is "my sweet old etcetera." It was my first cummings poem and threw me for a loop, as his poems do. When I worked out the ending, I blushed a lot. 😊

Ew

O. Cornelio Palanca - few people know her family’s true history but she is related to one of the original 1% families way back when...

I think one of her grandfathers was the prime minister of England
