Because of the fact that I feel my journal has severly decreased its popularity (not that there was any before hand), as of now, I am going to let it descend into anarchy and forget about writing structured, thoughtful posts. Instead, I shall post arbitrary things I find amusing, beautiful etc.
Tonight, I leave you with this. It's a poem by Sylvia Plath. I think if someone were to ask me if I had a favorite poem, this would be it, either this, or another one I posted not too long ago.
"I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead;
I lift my lids and all is born again.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
The stars go waltzing out in blue and red,
And arbitrary blackness gallops in:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed
And sung me moon-struck, kissed me quite insane.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
God topples from the sky, hell's fires fade:
Exit seraphim and Satan's men:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I fancied you'd return the way you said,
But I grow old and I forget your name.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
I should have loved a thunderbird instead;
At least when spring comes they roar back again.
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)"....
I think I'd like to film this somehow. Possibly dub in someone's voice over images that I feel represent the stanzas or something of that nature. Ah me. I'm quite sleepy.
