Two things of opposite natures seem to depend
On one another, as a man depends

Winter and spring, cold copulars, embrace
And forth the particulars of rapture come.

Don’t you think his blog would have been huge?
Oh, yeah. I did a paper for an undergrad rhetoric class comparing his “Blue Guitar” to Ecclesiastes.

That the blackbird is involved
In what I know.
