CURRENT MOON about the moon
I want my rapscallionly fellow vagabond.
I want my dark lady. I want my angel--
I want my temper. I want
my Freia with her apples. I want the lighter of
my seven lamps of beauty, honour, laughter,
music, love, life and immortality...I want
my inspiration, my folly, my happiness,
my divinity, my madness, my selfishness,
my final sanity and sanctification,
my transfiguration, my purification,
my light across the sea,
my palm across the desert,
my garden of lovely flowers,
my million nameless joys,
my day's wage,
my night's dream,
my darling and
my star...*
Tom Ripley
in general...
aural landscaping, ambient of all sorts, trip-hop, downtempo and chillout, most anything from George V's record label or J. Ralph's Rumor Mill. During the summer, I like some dancehall. Classical, Opera, Film Soundtracks. I currently worship my Pandora and my UnCuts, for the inspiration they provide. I like things I can dance to, and lyrics that move me.
I love most music, with the exceptions of country and musicals.
without music, life would be an error-Nietzsche
Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Every morning you greet me
Small and white, clean and bright
You look happy to meet meBlossom of snow may you bloom and grow
Bloom and grow foreverEdelweiss, Edelweiss
Bless my homeland forever.

"We all become different readers in how we respond to books, why we need them, what we take from them. We become different in the questions that arise as we read, in the answers that we find, in the degree of satisfaction or unease we feel with those answers. . . In the hands of a different reader, the same story can be a different story."
