The wave:
While waiting endlessly for a Tube yesterday, a groupd of men on the other side of the platform managed to get the wave going. It reminded me of those commercials for the NFL where they're doing the wave in the courtroom.
There's a cool web of language weaves us in,
Retreat from too much joy and too much fear:
We grow sea-green at least and coldly die
In brininess and volubility.
--Robert Graves
