Lent--Day 24

Yesterday was Opening Day, but today is *Red Sox* Opening Day. There is a Red Sox game on my television, we are losing and I am disgusted. IT IS JUST LIKE THE MIDDLE OF SUMMER ALREADY. 

The Poetry Comment-athon

The Poetry Comment-athon

I stole this from dollsome , with some modifications. In acknowledgment of the fact that April is both National Poetry Month AND, according to a very famous poem by my favorite poet, the cruellest month, I present the following: 

Rules

01. Here's how it goes -- comment with a fandom, a pairing or character, and a line (or a few lines) from a poem that you associate with them. For example:

Doctor Who - The Tenth Doctor - I have seen the moment of my greatness flicker, / And I have seen the eternal Footman hold my coat, and snicker, / And in short, I was afraid. ("The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" by T.S. Eliot)

You can also include the poem's title and author if you'd like, so people who aren't familiar with it can get to know some new poets/poems.

02. In its original iteration, this was a ficathon. So, if you see anything in the comments that inspires you, feel free to write some fic in response (and to put either the fic itself or a link to it in the comments). However, there's no fic requirement, and no guarantee your poem will get a fic. I don't want there to be pressure, I just want us to have fun with poems! (And, by extension, our fandoms.)

03. Be nice, have fun, love poems! :)

Videos from the Second Day in Iceland

Admittedly, nothing much happens in this video. I include it only so that you can hear how fierce and ridiculous the wind was. And that was the wind when it was *bearable.*

 

 

 

The steam rising off the water. In person, this was unbelievably amazing.
