George Herbert, Simone Weil, & ...you.
.
Love bade me welcome
Love bade me welcome
Love bade me welcome, yet my soul drew back,
Guilty of dust and sin.
But quick-ey'd Love, observing me grow slack
From my first entrance in,
Drew nearer to me, sweetly questioning
If I lack'd anything.
"A guest," I answer'd, "worthy to be here";
Love said, "You shall be he."
"I, the unkind, the ungrateful? ah my dear,
I cannot look on thee."
Love took my hand and smiling did reply,
"Who made the eyes but I?"
"Truth, Lord, but I have marr'd them; let my shame
Go where it doth deserve."
"And know you not," says Love, "who bore the blame?"
"My dear, then I will serve."
"You must sit down," says Love, "and taste my meat."
So I did sit and eat.
-- George Herbert

Joan was Jeff Buckley's GF at the time of his death.

I watch the numbers register on the postal scale
I think of your hands and calculate
How a man, desired, feels the weight of a letter
It's true what they say about me
That i'm out of my mind but i think that you like it
So take the chance,
Be reckless with me
'cause i'm real life
And you're real life
And we're real life
We're real life
Is it pleasing?
Six hundred thousand miles and all this solitude?
I know what is pleasing-
What i'll find beneath your new pair of glasses
I've never included a name in a song
But i'm changing my ways for you,
Jonathan
I need you to know,
I need you to know
That i'm real life

The Ides of December.
Marion Cotillard and Kate Winslet....together??? Two of the most divine actresses on the face of the earth, face to face? This kind of fabulousness just doesn't happen every day. Must be some kind of planetary conjunction. Play the lotto, it's the ides of December. it really is some kind of lucky day today, just found out, one of my friends just got into Yale, early decision...thank you Fairy Godmother, this is for you....

The Kiss.

i've noticed a few Rob dreams posted about the internet, they are fascinating.
only celebrity i've ever dreamed of is ange and brad, and ange alone, as an adolescent. in south africa. and i wondered why i wasn't having any dreams about Rob since I seem to be a little obsessed.
so, last night, first Rob dream. it was actually about his dad. who was talking, and had owl'y eyes, darkly rimmed, and his nose and mouth. very masculine, character face. handsome. through the eyes nose and mouth, you could see the lineage. he was in a pub, talking. dream was a camera shot of him. can't remember exactly what he was saying, but it was about Rob, and, now, thinking about it, the dream was showing his own ambition. (not that he is a stage dad, he is not...he isn't ambitiously driving his son) but the dream displayed his lineage charisma and chi. .
