Oh well.



Back to the boring stuff.


-------------------------------


Christina Rossetti (1830–1894)

In an Artist's Studio


One face looks out from all his canvases,
One selfsame figure sits or walks or leans:
We found her hidden just behind those screens,
That mirror gave back all her loveliness.
A queen in opal or in ruby dress,
A nameless girl in freshest summer-greens,
A saint, an angel—every canvas means
The same one meaning, neither more nor less.
He feeds upon her face by day and night,
And she with true kind eyes looks back on him,
Fair as the moon and joyful as the light:
Not wan with waiting, not with sorrow dim;
No as she is, but was when hope shone bright;
Not as she is, but as she fills his dream

Did Steve Asmussen's lawyers demand my BC thread be locked?

saw it was locked, figured there had to have been a bit of furniture re-arranging as well, as what's left didn't look too salty.

too bad i missed all the excitement....
