“Oh slow motion bed sheets in sunlight (hung out to dry … ) and provocation (they dance like emotions in this least important of years)”

Kako dišiš nesmrtnost: stebri hiše

gora v pristanišču, volnene deke v snu.

How immortality smells: the pillars of the house; the mountain in the harbor; woolen blankets in dreams.

So i was scrolling on youtube and I’m amazed at the lack of Chuck compilations? They have so many iconic scenes to make videos with it’s insane. Where’s my ‘chuck having bi panic for 5 minutes straight’ ‘Chuck and Morgan being besties for 10 minutes’ ‘Jeffrey and Lester going apeshit and doing dumb things’ ‘Volkoff being iconic evil lord for 6 minutes’ ‘everytime Casey had FeElInGs’ ‘Sarah Kicking people’s asses’ ‘Bryce Larkin’s worst scenes’ ‘General Beckman’s best appearances on screen’-

I crave this with my soul

Final part of gifs from the Here Come the Brides episode “Mr. and Mrs. J Bolt”. Prospective bride Peggy (Mary Jo Deschanel) has written her uncle saying she’s married to Joshua Bolt (David Soul). She did this because, although she wanted to go to Seattle, she didn’t have his consent to make the trip. As a minor, her uncle is still her legal guardian.

Now he's coming to visit and will surely find out she lied and take her home. Unless...

Joshua and Peggy pretend to be married while he’s in town.

A weaselly, schemer of a man who already squandered her inheritance, Uncle Jebediah is all too happy to hear Peggy married into a family with a flourishing business. He attempts to squeeze his way into the Bolts’ logging operation, threatening to sue them for taking Peggy to Seattle without his consent if they don’t agree to cut him in.

Things get infinitely worse when word of the fake marriage spreads first, to Captain Clancey and, via him, Aaron Stempel.

With the prospect of losing their business and Peggy being forced back into her abusive uncle’s custody looming, Josh and Peggy elope.

In the end, they’re able to send Jebediah away, save their business (and Peggy’s freedom) without she or Josh having to get married. Not realizing they only got a marriage license but didn’t actually go through with the wedding, he leaves.

Peggy keeps the license because it’s good for a year and she might need it.

certain things were undeniably true – that the sky was blue, or that grass was green. or that, perhaps, probably, most certainly – she loves Krishna more than anybody else she’d ever met. And that this fact would remain her own – to be held in her hands and softly tended to in secret, but never to be uttered aloud / there was not much else that could make krish feel so elated as making prudence smile. if the both of them had not devoted their entire lives to this cause, where lives hang in the balance daily, she might have devoted hers to the simplicity of making her smile the way she had growing up.

Allyn Ann McLerie and Doris Day in Calamity Jane (David Butler, 1953) Cast: Doris Day, Howard Keel, Allyn Ann McLerie, Philip Carey, Dick Wesson, Paul Harvey, Chubby Johnson, Gale Robbins. Screenplay: James O'Hanlon. Cinematography: Wilfrid M. Cline. Art direction: John Beckman. Film editing: Irene Morra. Songs: Sammy Fain, Paul Francis Webster. Doris Day had real cinematic presence, good comedy timing, and one of the sweetest singing voices of any star, with an ability to put a song over. I wish that she had been cast as Annie Oakley in Annie Get Your Gun (George Sidney, 1950) instead of the bumptious, brassy Betty Hutton, or as Nellie Forbush in South Pacific (Joshua Logan, 1958) instead of the blandly perky Mitzi Gaynor. But instead we have a string of somewhat undistinguished Warner Bros. musicals, culminating in Calamity Jane, which is an almost unabashed rip-off of Annie Get Your Gun, down to the casting of Howard Keel, who was Frank Butler in the 1950 film. Keel as Wild Bill Hickok and Day as Jane even get an insult-trading duet, "I Can Do Without You," that recalls "Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better" from the Irving Berlin musical. The Sammy Fain-Paul Francis Webster song score for Calamity Jane is of course nowhere near the equal of Berlin's, with only the Oscar-winning "Secret Love" lingering in anyone's memory, and that perhaps mostly because it has been adopted as a kind of LGBTQ anthem. The film itself has attracted a lot of attention because of its supposed queerness: It has a drag number, performed by Dick Wesson as the hapless Easterner who has been hired as a performer because his name, Francis, made the saloon owner think he was a woman, but most of the comment has been about the relationship between Jane and Katie Brown (Allyn Ann McLerie), who set up house together in a montage to the tune of "A Woman's Touch." Subtext aside, the movie is lively and energetic, and Day works her ass off in the role. Still, if you want a taste of what could have been, seek out the recording of Annie Get Your Gun that Day made with Robert Goulet as Hickok.

Rust Belt Jessie’s NaPoWriMo 2023 Prompts: #25

lots of white space

I’ve been reading Joshua Beckman’s Your Time Has Come*, and really digging the way his short blocks of poetry float like icebergs in the midst of the ocean of white space around them.

For this exercise, I want you to write some short poems, or short sections of a longer poem, on any topic you want—we’re talking two to four lines each, here; then put them each on their own page. See what the white space does to the poems/sections. See how you might want to edit, or rearrange the order, based on that.

—

*I posted some excerpts here.

(This exercise is from my ebook of NaPoWriMo prompts, which can be found here.)

Love, you are dull you are simple unacceptable incomplete you rush places sway crowds act mean and low and honest every chance you get. Come, take me away from this. I have romance for you. I have passion for you. I have the shrill sounds of a bird caught in your hallway.

like a hand goes through the middle of a pour from a faucet of water, the flow seeming relatively undisturbed

While meditating things will come into your mind and you will want to clear them away, believe that they are fish and your mind, a pool that longs to be vacant. There is no use (you will go crazy) trying to keep fish from your waters, so what you must do instead is draw them in and with a calmness and a smoothness and a touch of their own momentum, get the little trouble-fish (fish of what someone said at work, fish of your family falling apart on the phone) to move swiftly by, like a hand goes through the middle of a pour from a faucet of water, the flow seeming relatively undisturbed.

—Joshua Beckman, from “Winter’s Horizon” in Things Are Happening (American Poetry Review, 1998) (via Wait - what?)
