Landscape with the Fall of Icarus According to Brueghel when Icarus fell it was spring
A farmer was ploughing his field
The whole pageantry of the sun forbade our sight of it.
But for a moment and for a particular story we catch it all the shadowed waves from awe-inducing.
the man who was falling, a wheelbarrow toppled near the water.
The rest of us stand still—a formall light.
In the architecture of luck what life may yet flow!
- William Carlos Williams
