Stratford-bound actress, aspiring photographer, at the crossroads of which way to take, who will make it someday.

The following is a collection of my thoughts not fathomable into constellations: Inspiration, musings, art, music, Old Hollywood, love of Shakespeare, theatre, Oscar Wilde, costuming, books, quotes, flappers and other random things from the world around me as filtered by my brain.
{“Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative ” ~Oscar Wilde}

Now go read a book.

Not Iambic….Do Not Accept…

To save or not to save?

IT’S NOT JUST IN IAMBIC PENTAMETER
IT’S IN RHYMING IAMBIC PENTAMETER

Um guys…not just rhyming iambic pentameter, it’s an actual sonnet.

it’s not a shakespearan sonnet! there’s not volta! no contrasting section towards the end set at the final two lines! there isn’t any symbolism either.

Thy grandpa’s clothes are worthy salvage, though

much less to dress myself from head to toe.

“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn’t it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up.

You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life…You give them a piece of you.

They didn’t ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn’t your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like ‘maybe we should be just friends’ turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts.

Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It’s a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.”

Neil Gaiman

I would very much like
to fall in love with you.
Since you seen to understand
the way my muse moves.
but if we were to be
I’m afraid our crazy
would symbiotically feed
until we combust,
exothermically.

The fountains mingle with the river
And the rivers with the Ocean,
The winds of Heaven mix for ever
With a sweet emotion;

Nothing in the world is single;
All things by a law divine
in one spirit meet and mingle.
Why not I with thine?—

See the mountains kiss high Heaven
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister-flower would be forgiven
If it disdained its brother;

And the sunlight clasps the earth
And the moonbeams kiss the sea:
What are all these kissings worth
If thou kiss not me?

Percy Bysshe Shelley

I feel good. Communication is good, people. Not needing labels is also good. 

Love? Love is excellent.
