girl math is trying to figure out which fig you want to pick but being overwhelmed by how many figs are on the tree so you just stand there trying to make a decision but then you take too long and before you know it all the figs start going bad and starts falling to the ground one by one

homer gets mentioned and i have to personally restrain myself from jumping in with "if he even existed" and bringing up the Homeric Question like a madman

Dressing in a god honoring way but the god is Dionysus. Drape yourself in animal skin while you dance in his rites. Dress yourself garments not seen in the lands before. Do drag. Cross dress. Bull horns and feather boas.

Was a time massive Aias held off / nightmares, and waves of arrows.

in autumn, i feel like i come back to myself. it's the season i associate with rebirth, though the death of the natural world is in the air. death & rebirth, hand in hand. the leaves change color as the air continues to grow colder, and their brightness fills me with bliss. the crisp air gives a sharpness to the intake of my breath, reminding me that i am alive. out of the summer's sluggish heat comes a welcome coolness and a set intention to live with purpose.
