Great Regulars: An irritating afternoon made messy

by PRs and television producers was suddenly redeemed by the receipt of a book--The Landscapist by Pierre Martory, translated by John Ashbery. The book fell open at a poem called The Return of the Birds, the second half of which I now quote to redeem all your afternoons. For copyright purposes I claim fair use, abject admiration and gratitude.
