Great Regulars: Right now they're working on replacing the windows,

I think, and there's a big yellow cherry picker that goes up and down the side of the building, and a guy who takes out the old frames and puts in the new ones and then, I imagine, eventually washes the panes.

I've been watching this for a few days now, and then read this poem by Stephen Dunn, from his Pulitzer-winning collection Different Hours, which shares the same central image.

from Max Ross: The Rake: Cracking Spines: Poem Worth Reading: An Existential Miscommunication
