Social critisim is so passe... ~ ~ ~ I was the shadow of the waxwing slain By the false azure in the windowpane; I was the smudge of ashen fluff-and I Lived on, flew on, in the reflected sky. And from the inside, too, I'd duplicate Myself, my lamp, an apple on a plate: Uncurtaining the night, I'd let dark glass, Hang all the furniture above the grass, And how delightful when a fall of snow Covered my slimpse of lawn and reached up so As to make chair and bed exactly stand Upon that snow, out in that crystal land! - "Pale Fire", Nabokov. ~ ~ ~ Since some Hebrew speakers muse be here, here's my Bamah page, if anyone's interested. http://stage.co.il/Authors/23226
I am from Israel, if the latter remark hasn't hit you with the sad news yet. I was born in Russia in 1986. Soon, in about a year, Ishall become Finnish... well, sorta. I study linguistics in the Hebrew University, Jerusalem, and enjoy it very much. Latin and Old Norse in the uni, and Swedish and Finnish at home. P.s. - I HATE FICTIONPRESS! I have given up on hopes that the stupid editor would EVER break a line whereI ask it to, with or without their stinking guidlines. why do such useless things exist?! Obviously, all the poems I upload are completely fucked up by this lovely site... | |||||||
