The blog of the University of Cincinnati Libraries
Morning at the Window
by T.S. Eliot
They are rattling breakfast plates in basement kitchens,
And along the trampled edges of the street
I am aware of the damp souls of housemaids
Sprouting despondently at area gates.
The brown waves of fog toss up to me
Twisted faces from the bottom of the street,
And tear from a passer-by with muddy skirts
An aimless smile that hovers in the air
And vanishes along the level of the roofs.
April is National Poetry Month. In celebration of this, UC Libraries has mounted an exhibit on the fourth floor of Langsam Library celebrating poetry and poets.
Included in the exhibit is information about the Elliston Poetry Room, some Ohio poets, poets with a Cincinnati connection, and a sampling of UC poets including Armando Romero, Danielle Deulen, Don Bogen, James Cummins, John Drury and Nicasio Urbina.

From Jay:
Pre meeting before seeing another NGO (swift laundry). The workers were rescued from the sex trade
Then lunch somewhere in Goa. This was the best meal of the entire trip for me.
We visited another NGO. Then a trip to a Tibetan market.
Finished the day at a night club situated at the top of a large hill requiring a two-minute drive in an open jeep to the top.
Pool side at the club. This concluded the longest day of the trip. I was up at 6am, then I finally crawled into bed at 4am.
