| Bio: | Miranda in Shakespeare's The Tempest by John William Waterhouse "O, wonder! How many goodly creatures are there here! How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world, That has such people in't!" Miranda William Shakespeare The Tempest Act V, Scene I" "We are fortunate to be living in this age," Isis told me. "In times to come, people will fear Eros and hate all pleasure. There will be a dark age in which all the sweets of life will turn bitter. It will last a very long time." "How do you know this?" "I have read the entrails of the future. I am glad I will not live to see them. Music will die because there is no music without Eros. People will live for gold and conquest and only dimly remember that humans did not always live that way. Even your songs will be misunderstood. All songs to pleasure will be seen as evil. Music itself will be suspect. Everything will be measured by how much gold it brings." --From Sappho's Leap by Erica Jong, pg 66 "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." — Margaret Mead But I'll push myself up through the dirt And shake my petals free I'm resolved to being born And so resigned to bravery -from Spring Street by Dar Williams Sometimes I see myself, sometimes I need a witness. And I like the whole truth, but there are nights I only need forgiveness. And I'll act like I have faith and like that faith never ends, But I really just have friends. -from My Friends And the best ones were the ones I got to keep as I grew strong, And the days that opened up until my whole life could belong, And now I'm getting the answers, when I don't need them anymore, I'm finding the pictures, and I finally know what I kept them for. I remember, I can see them, see them smiling, see them stuck, See them try, I wish them luck and all the blessings. -from The Blessings And as for my own kingdom, not a table leg was charred, I simply lost my kingdom 'cause I held it much too hard. -from This Was Pompeii The sun rose with so many colors It nearly broke my heart. And worked me over like a work of art. And I was a part of all that. So go ahead, push your luck Say what it is you've got to say to me We will push on into that mystery And it'll push right back And there are worse things than that 'Cause for every price And every penance that I could think of It's better to have fallen in love Than never to have fallen at all -from After All I don't want to be another mystery I don't want to see who's looking at me I want to be the one to feel the sun So if you want to see the world with me, let's go -from Another Mystery | |
