"...one ought every day at least to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words." -Goethe
A song for a(nother) rainy day: "Happy When it Rains" by The Jesus and Mary Chain from their second album Darklands is a great example of their signature sound, a blend of Velvet Underground fuzz and Phil Spector-produced pop.
A poem for today: Ezra Pound's "In a Station of the Metro"
In a Station of the Metro
BY EZRA POUND
The apparition of these faces in the crowd:
Petals on a wet, black bough.
