• Midway on our life’s journey, I found myself
  In dark woods, the right road lost.
  

   

   

  god...

   

  ***

  Drink wine.
  This is life eternal.
  This is all that youth will give to you.
  It is the season for wine, roses and drunken friends.
  Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.

  The Rubaiyat by Omar Khayyam

   

   

   

  And this, and so much more?
  It is impossible to say just what I mean!
  But as if a magic lantern threw the nerves in patterns on a screen:
  Would it have been worth while
  If one, settling a pillow or throwing off a shawl
  And turning toward the window, should say:
  "That is not it at all,
  That is not what I meant, at all."
  
  The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, T.S. Eliot
