Oh Wilde ...

Were you parodying others or yourself? How on earth am I supposed to tell, here and now?

And yet: There was nothing in the world so white as thy body. There was nothing in the world so black as thy hair. In the whole world there was nothing so red as thy mouth.

On every rare occasion I revisit Wilde, Albert Finney murmurs in my head

Yes, well. I wouldn't trust Bosie to translate a greeting card. On the other hand, I could be biased by my deep and abiding hatred for the man..

*lol* Jude Law has so very much to answer for, doesn't he? I'm never certain if I slag off Bosie because of the film or the Wilde biograhies I've read. Deep and abiding hatred, hell yes! *shakes fist*

Not that Wilde wasn't a moron for letting himself be so ruined by a beautiful boy. Even if he did finally come to his senses. Poor Oscar ...
