He shows that the world offers no hope nor mercy whatsoever in their trial for escape. What the poet is actually trying

Mr. Bleaney Mr. Bleaney is a poem by Philip Larkin. It has seven stanzas split into two main themes. It is about the thoughts of Larkin as the landlady shows him around the room of the mysterious ‘Mr. Bleaney’.

One the one hand Larkin talks about the places of his past and how they are no longer accessible; the changing of a beautiful‚ unspoilt place to something short of an eyesore; a pace he is in but does not feel he belongs and even places within his mind.
