A little something...

...by Stephen Crane:

If I should cast off this tattered coat,
And go free into the mighty sky;
If I should find nothing there
But a vast blue,
Echoless, ignorant,--
What then?

If if if, if only I could ever get inspired to write, this sounds so like something that could go with the last episode of Cowboy Bebop. It almost sounds like a retort/counterpoint to the song "Blue".

Although I was never a fan of most of his subject matter, there is no denying that the man could write. Wow...

Hi, Di...

*Nodsnods* Very true. I had to read things like Red Badge of Courage and Maggie, Girl of the Streets when I was in high school--but I never enjoyed his prose as much as I liked the poetry we were assigned. And so even so long later, I still read his poetry. I've sworn to memorize "War is Kind" ever since I was a h.s.senior, but I still haven't done it. ^^;

And hi back. :) *hugs* Hope you're holding up ok--there's been a hellofalot for you to deal with lately. Been thinking about ya, I gotta admit.

When does your dream cel arrive, or has it already? I guess I could just check your website to see... Dang, that reminds me that someday (^^;;; ) I have to finish assembling my cel gallery on rubberslug.com. Yeesh.

Anyway, do take care.
