Jonathan Douglas Duran
“Silent, scarlet picking though this grand new year, an optimistic premise promised with sickening cheer. So please, pull up a chair and take a stand for all grand intentions. List your resolutions then kindly re-arrange them. Departmentalize your wicked, wonton ways - tell me all about yourself, but spend the most time on the things you hate. Pull out all your in-efficacious and ridiculous disguises; put on a simple act but perform it with abandon. Put your heart and your soul into the fire. Burn your thoughts before you think them, burn them up and take their stink in.”
Jonathan Douglas Duran, I Am the Fire That Flares Up Again

H.D.
“That odd infallible sliding-like-crystal air on water that means day's left dawn for morning.”
H.D., HERmione
