		| | Definitely one for Gyaban and others who have  graphic art/photography manipulating skills. 
 Wikipedia gives a very illustrative synopsis of the poem. //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sailing_to_Byzantium

		| | Cormac McCarthy's book "No Country for Old Men" used a line from Yeats' poem as the title.  Just an example of where you could take this idea.  The book has subsequently been made into movie.  Great movie by the way. |

 NO young lovers where you are? No singing birds? No monuments of unageing intellect in the form of, say, libraries? No fish, flesh, or fowl whatsoever? Just sayin'

 | 
 "Technique", "Concept", "Subject", "Other". This lets Langdon sort the list to different general themes.
