The Region November It is hard to hear the north wind again, And to watch the treetops, as they sway. They sway, deeply and loudly, in an effort, So much less than feeling, so much less than speech, Saying and saying, the way things say On the level of that which is not yet knowledge: A revelation not yet intended. It is like a critic of God, the world And human nature, pensively seated On the waste throne of his own wilderness. Deeplier, deeplier, loudlier, loudlier, The trees are swaying, swaying, swaying. -Wallace Stevens Reply

The Region November
It is hard to hear the north wind again,
And to watch the treetops, as they sway.
They sway, deeply and loudly, in an effort,
So much less than feeling, so much less than speech,
Saying and saying, the way things say
On the level of that which is not yet knowledge:
A revelation not yet intended.
It is like a critic of God, the world
And human nature, pensively seated
On the waste throne of his own wilderness.
Deeplier, deeplier, loudlier, loudlier,
The trees are swaying, swaying, swaying.
-Wallace Stevens
Stunning picture! Who’s the artist?
Jan Wijnants, I believe.
