Thank you very much, Steve. Your comments and the quotation from Stevens clarifiy why I have all those photos in my Everydayland album. Thanks again. I'm not familiar with that particular poem but -- honest -- I have a collection of his poems on my phone and will look it up.

Speaking of blue guitars, "The Man with the Bluw Guitar" has a highly interesting related theme. Some friends of mine and I recorded (for circulation among ourselves) an extract from "The Man with the Blue Guitar" (starting with "Am I a man that is dead"), with a punk arrangement and sensibility.

"I have a collection of his poems on my phone" -- why, when I was a boy if I'd said that everyone would have thought I was newly arrived from Mars.
