Point and counterpoint

'Old man ought to be explorers / Here or there does not matter / We must be still and still moving / Into a deeper intensity / For a further union, a deeper communion. / Though the cold dark and the empty desolation / The wave cry, wind cry, the vast waters / Of the petrel and the porpoise.' -- T. S. Eliot, Four Quartets, East Coker (V)

[Arms open wide and chest thrust forward] 'I'm still young!' - K. L. Tay.
