Send No Money

Analysis of Send No Money by Philip Larkin


- Talking to personified 'Time', asking to 'Teach me the way things go' - tell him about life.
- 'Sit here and watch the hail/ Of occurence clobber life out' - sit and let life pass you by.
- 'Oh thank you' 'Oh yes please' - gullible, naive.
- 'I spent youth,/ Tracing the trite untransferable/ Truss-advertisment, truth' - wasted his life not doing anything, like someone gullible watching an advert.
