"poetry lights up life from time to time like snow, falling, and you have achieved a great deal already if you have kept eyes to see it."
- Philippe Jaccottet, from Seedtime
(translated from the French by Andre Lefevere)
Of shoes -- and ships -- and sealing wax -- Of cabbages -- and kings -- And why the sea is boiling hot -- And whether pigs have wings.
