I like this poem because it offers the consolation of the 'taste' of living. I find Larkin superb on the blankness of living, rearing little taddlywackers in the suburbs. But sometimes I find him a little light on the breadfruit!! Whatever it is, I'm sure it goes down a treat!
For example see John Forbes' 'Post-colonial biscuit'.
