"A Cento from Ashbery"

The gray wastes of water surround
A great wind lifted these cardboard panels
To discover its heart. The blind enemy
One morning you appear at breakfast

To stunted memories, helping them stand alone
And cause, in the distance, an old satisfaction.
On the unassassinated president's desk
Behind a shutter, two black eyes are watching them.
