This be the Verse
They fuck you up, your mum and dad
They may not mean to, but they do
They fill you with the faults they had
and add some extra, just for you.
But they were fucked up in their turn
By fools in old style hats and coats
Who half the time were soppy stern
And half at one another’s throats.
Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a costal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don’t have any kids yourself.
Philip Larkin, Collected Poems
