    But the way is wide over stubble and sands,
    Wider and not too wide, as a dish in space
    Is excellent, conforming to demands
    Not yet formulated.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often have I desired to gather your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing!
