She looked over his shoulder
For vines and olive trees,
Marble well-governed cities
And ships upon untamed seas,
But there on the shining metal
His hands had put instead
An artificial wilderness
And a sky like lead.

A plain without a feature, bare and brown,
No blade of grass, no sign of neighborhood,
Nothing to eat and nowhere to sit down,
Yet, congregated on its blankness, stood
An unintelligible multitude,
A million eyes, a million boots in line,
Without expression, waiting for a sign.

On Radio Joel lately

For those who are interested, wanted to share what's been hot on my turntables (by which I mean my ipod) this week: Bon Iver (omg, amazing), The Format, Common, Josh Ritter, Masta Killa, Snow Patrol (yes, cheesy, I know), and Pale Young Gentlemen (Madison, what?). And Vampire Weekend, but they've been in the rotation non-stop for like 4 months.

What are you listing too? I'm interested.
