René Magritte was born on this day in 1898. Louis Simpson’s poem “Magritte Shaving” appeared in our twenty-fifth anniversary issue in Spring 1981.
The houses look at one another,
a language of windows.
The violin stands above the collar …
sleigh bells in a blue sky.How calm the torso of a woman
like a naked statue.
Reclining in an alcove
with curtains, the window gives
a view of earth … yellow fields.
She has a blue leg and a green arm,
red arm, and leg painted saffron.The orange sphere floating in space
in front of the blue canyon
has a face like a mask
with fixed brown eyes.
Directly underneath, on the parapet,
stands a shirt with a tie
in a dark, formal suit.He has left his shaving brush
on top of the cabinet with doors of glass
that is merging with a cloud.
