That time of year thou mayst in me behold
when yellow leaves, or none, or few do hang
upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
bare ruined choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.
in me thou sees the twilight of such day
as after sunset fadeth in the west;
which by and by black night doth take away,
death's second self that seals up all in rest.
in me thou seest the glowing of such fire
that on the ashes of his youth doth lie,
as the deathbed whereon it must expire,
consumed with that which it was nourished by
this thou perceiv'st, which makes thy love more strong,
to love that well, which thou must leave ere long.
how is "youth" like a pile of "ashes"?
youth is eternal and like light never dies out.
youth burns like a fire refusing to die out.
youth burns bright but like a fire ultimately dies out.
youth burns brightly but softly so it doesn't die out.

kellan is struggling with the amount of work he has to do

hope this : 3

i’m writing a memoir and i’ve been given the great suggestion of placing a ‘sub-narrative’ within some of the chapters – sort of, what was going on with me in the grand scheme of things.

i was wondering how to format this so that it is very obvious we are stepping out the of story.

firstly is a change in font from serif to sans workable? i also use dashes for a scene change. was thinking of using a different scene-changer too.

here’s a (shortened) example:

university – or what’s known as ‘uni’ in australia – were some of the best days of my life. where else do you get to potter around in a great location, have very little responsibility, learn lots of things, do lots of things and walk out four years later with a bonus – a degree!

with my university years i had immersed myself into community of intelligent ambitious people. generally everyone had a confidence about themselves. they knew where they were going in life and weren’t threatened by others.

next normal paragraph continues here…

(sorry couldn’t show the fonts in this comment field)

too much?

that’s a nice boss :
