Michael Whelan's The Snow Queen (copyright 1988)

The Fog

Swim in it,
cold fingers
in your warm ears
numb breath
on your staring eyes,
ice lips on
your tired mouth.
Your lover's gone,
with the sun,
and her dreamy
whiteness
will pull you deeper
inside
the heart and womb
of a sleep exploding world,
where
the breeze
will put you to sleep
and her water
will explode
your long held
desire
into an orgasm,
the early morning
wonder
in the dead of night.

"the breeze will put you to
sleep"
is enchanting and goes with the
gorgeous illustration..
i love the unexpected sleep that
appears mid-day with a soft breeze
through the curtains...

Have you ever seen Arthur Rackham's
illustrations?
I think you would love them -
he is my favorite -
detailed and enchanting -

Okkkkk...seven weird things...why seven? Why not 20? Thus the narcissist speaks :) 1. I have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Lights, gas, taps, door knobs..get checked 20 times over with the word 'Check' being uttered loudly...gets worse when I'm very sleepy, which is totally insane. Actually, I am. 2. I've never broken anyone's heart. 3. I have the curse of the memory. From Age 2 till now, I remember everything. Numbers, dates, faces, smells...everything. I pretend to forget. 4. When I was in school, my dream was to be an astronaut. I gave up because I sucked at Maths. 5. I read 354 books in my Third Year of college. Someone asked m

Then Now It's finally over, my turbulent 20s. I don't think anyone would be so happy to turn 30, but I am. Finally! It's amazing how everyone believes that the teenage years are the most difficult. They are not. It's the 20s, that time of uncertainty and changes, that is. No one warns you about it, and most people just go around questioning their identities, their goals and their feelings during this time, and getting depressed or drugged out over it. Luckily for me, my sister, three years ahead of me, put down the warning sign. 'It's going to be very difficult, but after 27-28, it'll get easier." I have some young friends who are in that group now, and I try to be patient with them, tell them it's okay to feel confused, it's okay to not know what you want... It was difficult. I don't know how many times I have redefined who I was in the last ten years. I went from being a virgin to a wife to a divorcee by 25; and from a student to a journa

Hello, I'm back, and well and good. And you sirs and ladies? Okay, actually, not that good, but I wanted to keep that for later. In fact, I wanted to write this entry next week with a snap as well, but a friend of mine kept pestering me to write. So AT, I hope now you at least comment on my blog since I'm crouching and curling like a snake on Morphine to write this, making sure my dad's laptop doesn't hurt my stitches. This is the story of my operation: Here goes, I got admitted on the 15th, i.e. Tuesday at 9 am. This gave me a reality check to prepare myself for days without food and water that were to come ahead. Dad filled in the papers and they checked me into my room. Man, did I get a shock or what! Now, I've never been admitted before, but as far as I remembered, hospitals were scary places with strong smells of iodine. This was swanky, with personal TV and all. I had to share my room with a noisy ladywho kept Alpha Marathi, Zee Marathi and ETv Marathi on at f
