Want to Feel Old? Here's 17 GIFs of Extremely High Windows.

After the uprising of the 17th of June
This secretary had leaflets distributed in the Stalinallee
Stating that the people
Had forfeited the confidence of the government
And could win it back only
By redoubled efforts. Here's why it would be
Easier for the government
To dissolve the people
And elect another--
And why that's okay

It's not right, but it's okay
I'm going to make it anyway and here's why

Over my head, I see the bronze butterfly,
Asleep on the black trunk,
Blowing like a leaf in green shadow.
Down the ravine behind the empty house,
The cowbells follow one another
Into the distances of the afternoon.
To my right,
In a field of sunlight between two pines,
The droppings of last year’s horses
Blaze up into golden stones.
I lean back, as the evening darkens and comes on.
A chicken hawk floats over, looking for home.
You Won't Believe My Reaction

War
War is stupid
And people are stupid
And it's glorious

I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour
YOU'LL ~ NEVER GUESS WHAT HAPPENED NEXT!

You do not do, you do not do
Any more, black shoe
In which I have lived like a foot
For thirty years, poor and white,
Barely daring to breathe or Achoo

And that's okay

Put off your maiden blushes; avouch the
thoughts of your heart with the looks of an empress;
take me by the hand, and say 'Harry Of England,
What Percentage Of France Have You Actually Visited?'
which word thou shalt no sooner bless mine
ear withal, but I will tell thee aloud 'England Is
Thine, Ireland Is Thine, France Is Thine, And Harry
Plantagenet Is Thine' -- Things That You Would Tweet
If You Were Honest!

IT'S OFFICIAL! The apparition of these faces in the crowd;
Petals on a wet, black bough ARE TOTALLY DATING

You'll be astounded at what this travelling salesman found himself transformed into!

Amazing! These dead war guys do not grow old as we who are left grow old

Stately, Plump Buck Mulligan Came From The Stairhead, And You Won't Believe What He Was Bearing Or What Lay Crossed

He gazed up at the enormous face. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark moustache. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. Big Brother just won the Internet.

BB and YMP's last ones have me in stitches

“Everyone strives after the law,” says the man, “so how is that in these many years no one except me has requested entry?” The gatekeeper sees that the man is already dying and, in order to reach his diminishing sense of hearing, he shouts at him, "The Internet Is Freaking Over This Cat Who Loves Putting Her Paws In The Air."

The year’s at the spring,
And day’s at the morn;
Morning’s at seven;
The hill-side’s dew-pearled;
The lark’s on the wing;
The snail’s on the thorn;
God’s in His heaven...
And that's okay

To-day we have How Many Parts Can You Name?
Yesterday,
We had This Simple Cleaning Hack Changes Everything, and to-morrow morning,
We shall have The One Weird Thing You Should Do Every Time You Fire.
But to-day,
To-day we have How Many Parts Can You Name. Look, these kittens
Are the cutest things you will EVER see,
And to-day we have How Many Parts Can You Name.

The mystery of the balances is there
The Masonic secret lies there
The church forbids its angels entry there
The gypsies camp there
Blood is exchanged there
Mothers weep there
It is night there
And that's okay

Princess Volupine extends
A meagre, blue-nailed, phthisic hand
To climb the waterstair. Lights, lights,
She entertains Sir Ferdinand

Klein. Who clipped the lion’s wings
And flea’d his rump and pared his claws?
Thought Burbank, meditating on
Time’s ruins, and the seven Disney princesses reimagined as anti-semitic caricatures.

WEBSTER was much possessed by death
And saw the skull beneath the skin;
And breastless creatures under ground
Leaned backward with a lipless grin.

Daffodil bulbs instead of balls 5
Stared from the sockets of the eyes!
He knew that thought clings round dead limbs
Tightening its lusts and luxuries.

Donne, I suppose, was such another
Who found no substitute for sense;
To seize and clutch and penetrate,
Expert beyond experience,

He knew the anguish of the marrow
The ague of the skeleton;
No contact possible to flesh
Allayed the fever of the bone.

Grishkin is nice: her Russian eye
Is underlined for emphasis;
Uncorseted, her friendly bust
Gives promise of pneumatic bliss. 20

The couched Brazilian jaguar
Compels the scampering marmoset
With subtle effluence of cat;
Grishkin has a maisonette;

The sleek Brazilian jaguar
Does not in its arboreal gloom
Distil so rank a feline smell
As Grishkin in a drawing-room.

And even the Abstract Entities
Circumambulate her charm;
But our lot crawls between dry ribs
To keep our metaphysics warm.
