The Beginning Of The End

Today is officially the last day at the Nansenskolen. Tomorrow people leave.

I hope that Björk's new album will keep me from going astray.

i am listening to it now
it makes me want to wander
into adventure...

I was actually inspired to write that after I randomly read your post about Pagan Poetry, which happens to be one of my favourite songs...

[finnky]

Or were you referring to Volta?

[travlr1]

volta, but every little bit of inspiration makes the world that much sweeter, so keep writing. i got a tattoo of Thoth while listening to Pagan Poetry, is that what you were referring to? things are coming together in unforeseeable ways, and it's delicious... take a slice.

I was referring to this entry http://travlr1.livejournal.com/295897.html, but I'd love to take a slice or two. Sometimes I believe words can be dangerous because they have the magical power one can't resist so easily.

pagan poetry will forever be etched into my heart, just as Thoth will forever be etched into my skin. there is a web of hearts i am forever connected to... it is amazing.

in a way, words are like drugs because they change the chemistry of the body when they are spoken. one can easily become addicted to hearing certain words, or afraid of certain words. i love the magick of words. i love playing with words. i love the infinite possibilities.

Then we share one passion. I wish you could Norwegian, cause then you could read the mini poem collection I wrote recently here in school. Playing with words is the central in them. It was especially interesting to write in a language which isn't my mother tongue and explore it from another perspective than the native speakers. Since I think it's extremely hard or even impossible or just wrong to translate poems to other languages, I made sure that these poems are extremely dependent on language and even more impossible to translate. I was at peace when natives got impressed by it.
