The Second Nun's Tale

Mar 31, 2008 17:47

What a weird day. Once again, I feel like a modern pilgrim, my arm crooked with books, sitting in a plastic chair in a midwest airport on a gloomy, grainy, rainy day, waiting for a flight to take me Out. Departmental departure, not called ungentle.

Is life a layover?

--

The martyrs are brought before Maximus before the decapitation, and they converted him. Cecilia broke his heart and shook his confidence, I guess, got him down on his knees...

Come on home; or are you waiting for lightning, a sign that it's time for a change?

Or, from ol' Croce:

Your silver tongue has turned to clay,
and your golden road to rust.
If that's the way that you want it,
that's the way I want it more.
There'll be one less set of footsteps on your floor
in the morning.

Twang-a-lang.
