"something there is that doesn't love a wall"

walls that divide
-
wall of brick and stone
-
and 
wall of stuff which cannot be seen yet can be felt

yet..
"good fences make good neighbours..."(Mending Wall ,Frost)
-
fences connote the idea of transparency, yet a barrier
-
maybe I shall one day
talk things out...
and see ...
-

or else...
"love and be silent"(King Lear, Cordelia)
-
"Button B, Button A"(Soyinka, Telephone Conversation)

Mugging IOC certainly is a fun pastime
-
after:
"Go study!" which i was intending to anyway
-
in contrast to a John Tay's mocking "dont study lor, see what happens"
-

I don't want to go later... IOC beckons, and I might... just go mad... like King Lear...
-
boo...

"myself I could outfrown false fortunes frown..."(King Lear, Cordelia)
-
a game of "hide and speak"(Soyinka, Telephone Conversation)
-
"For love is not the binding of fair lips, with the soft silk of eyes that look and long"(Owen, Apologia pro Poemate Meo)
-

"disconnected sentences of King Lear which shows his unstable state of mind" (M. Nathan)
