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

Brings to mind this image, one of my favorites on the site.

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'

Like I said, the poem does not inspire me in any way. No images come to mind, no memories, no scenes, no ideas. Nothing. Just leaves me completely blank wishing I had not wasted the time reading it over and over.

Wow. And so it goes...

Do ya think anyone is going to read this before they vote?
I hope so.

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