His soul sank back deeper into depths of contrite peace, no longer able to suffer the pain of dread, and sending forth, as he sank, a faint prayer. Ah yes, he would still be spared; he would repent in his heart and be forgiven; and then those above, those in heaven, would see what he [...]

Because Stephen Dedalus is an idiot
August 25, 2008Um…
August 19, 2008I don’t know what to write.
Nikki has just left my side for slumber land.

Its 11:24 now, on a cool Tuesday night, my word count [...]
Porphyria’s Lover

The sullen wind was soon awake,
It tore the elm-tops down for spite,

And kneeled and made the cheerless grate
Blaze up, and all the cottage warm;
Which done, she [...]

Perpetually tanned, too,
like a Fifties’ movie star.
This photograph is more
head shot for Hollywood
than portrait for an obituary.
Sometimes we get the chance
to realize our dreams
before we lose touch [...]
