Subject: [DR-L] Quote of the Day

For although memories, of a season, for example,
Melt into a single snapshot, one cannot guard, treasure
That stalled moment. It too is flowing, fleeting;
It is a picture of flowing, scenery, though living, mortal,
Over which an abstract action is laid out in blunt,
Harsh strokes.

-John Ashbery (b. 1927) American poet, critic
"Syringa"
