    who stopped and smiled; he too had charm.
    “My finches,” he said, “you are watching my finches.”

    —Edwin Morgan, “Darwin in the Galapagos (1835 AD)”
    published in A BOOK OF LIVES (Carcanet, 2007)

    Charles Darwin was born #OnThisDay, 12 February, 1809

    And how far back was back, and how far on
    would basalt still be basalt, iron iron?
