You lack an academic brain.

I'm starting to think moving to Europe would be a good idea.

I don't like poetry. Doesn't mean I lack an academic brain.

Europe? Why? Where in Europe?

writes4money October 19 2008, 07:22:50 UTC

Poetry is literature, only simple people don't like it.

Anywhere. France, Italy, England. They have castles and I won't have to be around you idiots.

Um. D-do y-you mind explaining it?

Basically the Duke likes to make his status and wealth known. The Duchess was like another possession to him (see how he always points out who made a particular piece of art?) and he is unhappy that she smiles at other people and regard their gifts on the same level as his. It is assumed that he ordered her death. He is talking to someone from the family of someone else he is trying to marry.

This is based off of a real Duke from Italy.

He sounds mean!

haha, we had to analyze this in class xD writes4money October 19 2008, 07:31:29 UTC

I guess. But I doubt people cared at the time. Money and power was above everything else after all.

writes4money October 19 2008, 07:47:42 UTC

Oh, typo. I'll fix that.

onlyluminous October 19 2008, 07:49:58 UTC

It's a very nice poem.

derridamustdie October 19 2008, 10:02:26 UTC

I'm somehow not surprised that you'd select this piece.

writes4money October 20 2008, 00:15:03 UTC

Hnn, why do you say that.

derridamustdie October 20 2008, 06:56:07 UTC

One can tell a lot about a person by what they read, and vice-versa. It just seemed like the sort of poem that would interest you, from what little I know about you.

Haru doesn't understand, but yes living in a palace is definitely nice as long as Haru doesn't have to pay

writes4money October 20 2008, 00:17:16 UTC

Of course. Imagine the wealth and status that comes with it.

charming_twirl October 20 2008, 02:13:07 UTC

No more bills

And along with the wealth and status, there'll be power.

Exciting, yet so scary.

writes4money October 20 2008, 04:44:10 UTC

It's nice but only a dream. It's not really achievable is it =/
