[QUOTE="Potteryplease, post: 10329418, member: 16407"]...and, since it's my thread, I'm gonna go ahead and post this poem that the painting reminds me of: The Disillusionment of Ten O'Clock The houses are haunted By white night-gowns. None are green, Or purple with green rings, Or green with yellow rings, Or yellow with blue rings. None of them are strange, With socks of lace And beaded ceintures. People are not going To dream of baboons and periwinkles. Only, here and there, an old sailor, Drunk and asleep in his boots, Catches tigers In red weather. --Wallace Stevens[/QUOTE]
