I'm becoming a cynical bitch in my middle age. However, I balance that out with a healthy sense of humor.
I have an unholy obsession with elves and the Viking Age. These obsessions are being combined into a story that may one day actually get done.
********************
In youth, it was a way I had,
To do my best to please.
And change, with every passing lad
To suit his theories.
But now I know the things I know
And do the things I do,
And if you do not like me so,
To hell, my love, with you.
--Dorothy Parker
********************
…We shall be
Part of the mighty universal whole,
And through all aeons mix and mingle with the Kosmic Soul!
We shall be notes in that great Symphony
Whose cadence circles through the rhythmic spheres,
And all the live World’s throbbing heart shall be
One with our heart; the stealthy creeping years
Have lost their terrors now, we shall not die,
The Universe itself shall be our Immortality.
--Oscar Wilde, from "Panthea"
********************
Come, you spirits
That tend on mortal thoughts! Unsex me here,
And fill me from the crown to the toe top full
Of direst Ryl.
