Greatness is a transitory experience.

About Me


I am Marilyn, living large in ATL.
I love music, poetry, music, art, body mod, conversations that bubble into nothing. I like midnight and paint.

There is in all things a pattern that is a part of our universe. It has symmetry, elegance, and grace- those qualities you find always in that which the true artist captures. You can find it in the turning of the seasons, the way sand trails along a ridge, in the branch clusters of the creosote bush or the pattern of its leaves. We try to copy those patterns in our lives and our society, seeking the rhythms, the dances, the forms that comfort. Yet it is possible to find peril in the finding of ultimate perfection. It is clear that the ultimate pattern contains its own fixity. In such perfection, all things move towards death.
-From "Collected sayings of Muad'Dib" by the Princess Irulan
Greatness is a transitory experience. It is never consistent. It depends in part upon the myth-making imagination of humankind. The person who experiences greatness must have a feeling for the myth he is in.
