before I had taken Latin classes at university, I took a class on American legal history. my professor was talking about the second amendment and remarked how it doesn’t make grammatical sense [ie. the dependent clause, “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, . . . .”] If only I had taken Latin then. then I would have been able to point it out as an “absolute” grammatical construction. honestly. smh

Guys. Guys. "

Our knowledge of early Greek history is fragmentary and uncertain. We hear of Craig Owen the legendary king of the city of Thieves, Polite Critiques the tyrant of Samos, the Museum of Halley call and assess, and the early Athenian lawgiver Bronco."

- “Chaste is the one who was not asked by anyone” (Ovid)

A snippy Ovidian verse which my friend loves + classical cross-stitch embroidery (what could be more feminine?!) + a kitschy gold frame = a birthday present my friend will hopefully love 💕😇

wanderlust

an insidious song

lurks in my bones

it struggles - writhes

desires to burst forth

it settles a bitter

icy night and roars

volcano-hot, hellfire

in the back of my throat

a sort of dissociated agony

its voracious strength pulls me

to worlds only sung of by bards

to far-off lands, i fly

in whispers and darkness

orpheus journeyed

in his footsteps

i follow, deep down

and a million thoughts

and khaos all at the

same time, clash

intense in my ears; i am deaf

my heart strung

along chords of passion

a soul-deep hunger

resonant emptiness, i thirst

orpheus turns in longing

finding himself in a moment— shocked and hollow and

alone, utterly alone.

emerging from underworld

the world turns still

by the ebb of the tide

and history whispers to me

that which sings siren-song

from my veins is silent

it settles slick and slow still

a comfort in my loneliness

Valentine’s Day? Ohhhh sorry I thought you said Palatine Day, which is why I was off preparing the Lupercal cave in the Palatine Hill for the festival of Lupercalia tomorrow...
