- Life with the Greesons -
“There are two novels that can transform a bookish 14-year-kld’s
life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish
daydream that can lead to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled
adulthood in which large chunks of the day are spent inventing ways to
make real life more like a fantasy novel. The other is a book about
orcs.” – “The Value of Nothing” by Raj Pate

THE LAST HOURS OF CASSIODORUS God is laying his last slate to the roof, The ceiling of my death is near complete, The Vivarium now must live up to its name. Fish in my stewponds circle silently, Their free captivity is like the soul, An endless round, then thrashing in a net. Our state days pinioned in official letters, The Variae of sound administration, But Boethian birds still shun my volary. Home to the South, to sad Scolacium, From Civilisation and a Library, The sea spray drying on acacia leaves. After me what further barbarisms? My pose is prayer, but yet my head is filled...
hahahaha, this is great.
