A quick favour: can anyone post the text of the poem "That Star" by Ted Hughes for me? I haven't got it in a book and apparently the complete text isn't online anywhere. Plus it's too hot to walk to the nearest library/bookshop, and no guarantee that either will have it anyway.
I did find part of it when I googled, quoted in a scholarly paper about stars:
And they surround us. And far into infinity.
These are the armies of the night.
There is no escape.
Not one of them is good, or friendly, or corruptible.
One chance remains: KEEP ON DIGGING THAT HOLE
KEEP ON DIGGING AWAY AT THAT HOLE.
But I kinda want the whole thing. Anyone have it handy?
