Hello, Sun, You August Luminary!

[dionusia]

It has been sunny the past few days -- THANK YOU UNIVERSE, how did you know I needed that? And I feel the need to celebrate.

Poet's tea with the Sun:
Extraordinary Adventure by Mayakovsky, and Frank O'Hara's homage for good measure

as an extension of the sun-love, a little snippet of crack!Arnold from "Apollo Musagetes"...

Apollo leads pilots(muses) into battle (Tylium refinery mission):

What flame-breathing presence
Cuts swath thru the night?
What ship gives chase in
The battle's swift fight?

'Tis Apollo comes leading
His vipers, the Nine.
-Tho' Lee may be fairest,
Yet all are quite fine.

...

First hail they the Commander
Of nothing but rain,
The rush of vic'try,
'Midst the loss and pain.

The pilot in his hotness,
The cigar in his palm;
Starbuck smiles in silence,
A brief glimpse of calm.

[dionusia]

-Tho' Lee may be fairest,
Yet all are quite fine.

Can I get an AMEN?

All of it so lovely, but the last stanza is perfect -- oh how I adore you! :D I'll be trying to think of some more crackpoetry in return. Or anything else you might like! Eee.

*grins widely*

I'm very happified by the cracklove, as always. I just want to have more time for it!

Especially the Bonion--I've been saving that list of awesome article ideas you gave me and I want to play with them!!!

[dionusia]

Yay for cracky play! It brings a grin of JB magnitude cutness to my face. Oh, and speaking of that, maybe I'll ask for Photoshop for Christmas. I so want the ability to play around with graphics. Esp. for that "Men of Galactica" calendar...whew. TEH HOTNESS.

[boom_queen]

Eeeeeek, I will SO make the "Men of Galactica" calendar with you--we can go halfsies!!! and we can do crack!tastic bios for each one, or some other theme. You can do Lee, as long as I can call Anders ahead of time :D

[dionusia]

Done and done. :D

...although we could have a sneaky Lee/Anders month as well (let's face it, better that than a Flattop month)
