			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Our idea for the T.S. Eliot Poet&#8217;s Society Blog is to open a forum where we may share with our friends and fellow poets the poetry we love and the poetry that we write.  Hopefully it will be a positive area for discussion and critique so that we may all come to better write and better understand words.  </p>
<p>We have recently been in communication with the Dean, and Student Fed.  For what it is worth, the society should be officially founded within a couple of days.  If you are interested in taking a role in getting this off the ground we need a few more people. Let us know. </p>
<p>This site is ready to go. Kristi and I will probably kick it off with a couple of entries but for anyone else who wants to hop on board, send me an email and I will get you a username and password. </p>

<p><font size="3" color="#ffffcc" face="times new roman">So here I am, in the middle way, having had twenty years—<br />
Twenty years largely wasted, the years of <em>l&#8217;entre deux guerres</em><br />
Trying to use words, and every attempt<br />
Is a wholly new start, and a different kind of failure<br />
Because one has only learnt to get the better of words<br />
For the thing one no longer has to say, or the way in which<br />
One is no longer disposed to say it. And so each venture<br />
Is a new beginning, a raid on the inarticulate<br />
With shabby equipment always deteriorating<br />
In the general mess of imprecision of feeling,<br />
Undisciplined squads of emotion. And what there is to conquer<br />
By strength and submission, has already been discovered<br />
Once or twice, or several times, by men whom one cannot hope<br />
To emulate—but there is no competition—<br />
There is only the fight to recover what has been lost<br />
And found and lost again and again: and now, under conditions<br />
That seem unpropitious. But perhaps neither gain nor loss.<br />
For us, there is only the trying. The rest is not our business.</font></p>
