At the Winter Light Inn...

... it couldn't have been all that bad.

There's a certain slant of light,
On winter afternoons,
That oppresses, like the weight
Of cathedral tunes.

Heavenly hurt it gives us;
We can find no scar,
But internal difference
Where the meanings are.

None may teach it anything,
'Tis the seal, despair,-
An imperial affliction
Sent us of the air.

When it comes, the landscape listens,
Shadows hold their breath;
When it goes, 't is like the distance
On the look of death.


—Emily Dickinson

But we all know that, right?

And, yes, it does seem that bad, just now.

I used to resort to porn and naughty stories to satisfy my salacious voyeurism, and to satiate my desire to peek into the dark hedonistic depths of humankind.

Now I just read appellate court decisions.

So much more juicy! And they're real!

Over on the right side of the wall, I can barely see the outline of three letters. An "n"... an "i".........
