What Fools
"Captain of our fairy band,
Helena is here at hand,
And the youth, mistook by me,
Pleading for a lover's fee.
Shall we their fond pageant see?
Lord, what fools these mortals be!"
-- William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Nights Dream Act 3, scene 2, 110-115
Against my better judgment, I've decided I might as well play therealljidol again this season. While I deplore some of the popularity stunts and politics which happen, I do have to admit that some of my best introspective writings came of the topics which were offered...and, truth be told, for someone with very few friends on LJ I didn't do too bad (made it to the top thirty).
