not a hater but i do want to know what popular symbolism just doesn't do it for you. for me it's fruit. like it's nice when someone peels an orange for me i guess but i just don't think that hard about it idk.

#🐉#also the two headed calf poem. its FINE it just doesnt bowl me over.#and im saying this as someone who goes crazy if you so much as mention the name laika. its just a personal preference.

everything you need is within you

you are stronger than you know

you are the daylight

you are the night

the darkness you fight is within you

the light you seek is within you

you are not alone

planet of love

#bsd #bungo stray dogs #akutagawa ryuunosuke #ryuunosuke akutagawa #shin soukoku #sskk #uhmm excuse the fact that the quality on the word fragments is a little bit shit if you look too close #i didn't wanna type it out so i just cropped the lines out of a pic of the poem but obviously that kind of zooming in #doesn't preserve a clean image. i think it looks mostly fine but it could be better #anyway. had a hashtag Thought. do you guys get me #smth smth how we only really see aku express the fact that he cares via being willing to die for people #however the very interesting contrast between “accepting he's going to die for REVENGE for his lost friends”#vs. you know. dying for atsushi to PROTECT him. no vengeance. atsushi is ALIVE and aku dies TO KEEP HIM ALIVE. idk #the difference between protection and vengeance but both times it's love expressed as the intention to die IDK IDK IDKKKKK #DO Y'ALL GET ME #oh btw poem used is planet of love by richard siken. i think we here all on the sad gays website know that already but just in case

It's a long night.

I don't know what you're going through. I don't know how hard it is to wake up each day as you, to wake up feeling so blue.

I do know that it's not forever, that each terrible day makes way for a better one someday. I do know it's going to be okay.

I'm sorry that it's not right now, but I promise it will be.

There will be tears and heartbreak, but gods I promise you there will be laughter that leaves you aching and a love that warms you up, buckets of joy just for you. It's sounds like a lie, but it is nothing but true.

So please just push on through, but don't forget to keep that joy in sight, it won't always be this long harsh night, soon enough there comes the light. It's going to be alright.

Wood Engraving Wednesday

On this last Wood Engraving Wednesday of 2023, it seems appropriate to end the year with some engravings by one of the principal revivers of the wood engraving in the early 20th century, Robert Gibbings (1889-1958). Gibbings acquired the Golden Cockerel Press in 1924, and in 1928 the press published this book, Miscellaneous Poems by Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) with twelve original wood engravings by Gibbings, printed in Waltham Saint Lawrence, Berkshire in an edition of 375 copies (of which, 150 were distributed in the U. S. by Random House, which had been founded a year earlier).

It also seems appropriate that Gibbings would print and publish a work by Swift as both shared parallels in their biographies: both were writers; both had deep connections to the Anglican Church of Ireland; and both were born in Ireland (Swift to an English family, spending the rest of his life in Ireland; Gibbings to an Irish family, and spending the rest of his life in England). And judging by these engravings, both shared an interest in the whimsical.

Our copy of Miscellaneous Poems is another gift from our friend Jerry Buff.
