Bill Cunningham's Soul
April 26, 2005 | 10:17 a.m.
We were pleased to see the Times this morning take a peek into Bill Cunningham's soul, which is apparently full of Yeats. The Irish poet was a famously bad politician, but he did write a very nice poem called Politics. We trust it doesn't reflect the attitude up at Bill's new office: How can I, that girl standing there, My attention fix On Roman or on Russian Or on Spanish politics? Yet here's a travelled man that knows What he talks about, And there's a politician That has read and thought, And maybe what they say is true Of war and war's alarms, But O that I were young again And held her in my arms!
