Mythos & Marginalia

life notes; flaws and all


open space

  • familiarity

    Home is a place you come home to.

    No matter how long you are away you are welcome, and welcomed by the familiarity

    You never simply visit your home; it is a part of you, as you are a part of it.

    Home is always there for you, no matter how long you stay away. 

  • storied past

    An English-language bookstore in the middle of Paris; what a wonderful idea.

    Shakespeare and Company has a storied past.

    Through the years, many writers have found comfort in this humble independent bookstore, including Beat Poets Allen Ginsberg and Lawrence Ferlinghetti, William S. Burroughs, Anaïs Nin and James Baldwin. 

    After 57 years, readers still line up to get in.

  • cloud songs

    You are allowed to be angry,
          even with yourself. 
          It is how we deal with feelings 
          not validated or justified.
    There is no temporary placement
          for all you have observed.
