Its feels, as Ashbery have to back on track to fulfill his promises...And, here, some our bliss and confusions should be answered accordingly<3''Tomorrow is easy, but today is uncharted,Desolate, reluctant as any landscapeTo yield what are laws of perspectiveAfter all only to the painter's deepMistrust, a weak instrument thoughNecessary. Of course some thingsAre possible, it knows, but it doesn't knowWhich ones. Some day we will tryTo do as many things as are possibleAnd perhaps we shall succeed at a handfulOf them, but this will not have anythingTo do with what is promised today, ourLandscape sweeping out from us to disappearOn the horizon. Today enough of a cover burnishesTo keep the supposition of promises togetherIn one piece of surface, letting one rambleBack home from them so that theseEven stronger possibilities can remainWhole without being tested. ActuallyThe skin of the bubble-chamber's as tough asReptile eggs; everything gets "programmed" thereIn due course: more keeps getting included Without adding to the sum, and just as oneGets accustomed to a noise thatKept one awake but now no longer does,So the room contains this flow like an hourglassWithout varying in climate or quality(Except perhaps to brighten bleakly and almostInvisibly, in a focus sharpening toward death--more Of this later). What should be the vacuum of a dreamBecomes continually replete as the source of dreamsIs being tapped so that this one dreamMay wax, flourish like a cabbage rose,Defying sumptuary laws, leaving usTo awake and try to begin living in whatHas now become a slum. Sydney Freedberg in hisParmigianino says of it: "Realism in this portraitNo longer produces and objective truth, but a bizarria . . . . However its distortion does not createA feeling of disharmony . . . . The forms retainA strong measure of ideal beauty," becauseFed by our dreams, so inconsequential until one dayWe notice the hole they left. Now their importanceIf not their meaning is plain. They were to nourishA dream which includes them all, as they areFinally reversed in the accumulating mirror.They seemed strange because we couldn't actually see them.And we realize this only at a point where they lapseLike a wave breaking on a rock, giving upIts shape in a gesture which expresses that shape.The forms retain a strong measure of ideal beautyAs they forage in secret on our idea of distortion.Why be unhappy with this arrangement, sinceDreams prolong us as they are absorbed?Something like living occurs, a movement Out of the dream into its codification.""
And finally, a ChristmasFinalle<3)Enjoy, my Family, :bearhug: works of Genius, who AllWays looking ahead of TIME! :th_bravo:''..As I start to forget itIt presents its stereotype againBut it is an unfamiliar stereotype, the faceRiding at anchor, issued from hazards, soonTo accost others, "rather angel than man" (Vasari).Perhaps an angel looks like everythingWe have forgotten, I mean forgottenThings that don't seem familiar whenWe meet them again, lost beyond telling,Which were ours once. This would be the pointOf invading the privacy of this man who"Dabbled in alchemy, but whose wishHere was not to examine the subtleties of artIn a detached, scientific spirit: he wished through themTo impart the sense of novelty and amazement to the spectator"(Freedberg). Later portraits such as the Uffizi"Gentleman," the Borghese "Young Prelate" andThe Naples "Antea" issue from ManneristTensions, but here, as Freedberg points out,The surprise, the tension are in the conceptRather than its realization.The consonance of the High RenaissanceIs present, though distorted by the mirror.What is novel is the extreme care in renderingThe velleities of the rounded reflecting surface(It is the first mirror portrait),So that you could be fooled for a momentBefore you realize the reflectionIsn't yours. You feel then like one of thoseHoffmann characters who have been deprivedOf a reflection, except that the whole of meIs seen to be supplanted by the strictOtherness of the painter in hisOther room. We have surprised himAt work, but no, he has surprised usAs he works. The picture is almost finished,The surprise almost over, as when one looks out,Startled by a snowfall which even now isEnding in specks and sparkles of snow.It happened while you were inside, asleep,And there is no reason why you should haveBeen awake for it, except that the dayIs ending and it will be hard for youTo get to sleep tonight, at least until late."" :moonwalk_: :bowdown:
