Homemade Melancholy
The american writer John Fante put these lines from a poem by Yeats in his book
"Dreams from Bunker Hill"
When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face.
"Homemade Melancholy"

That is awesome. It's like Gustav Dore came back from an acid trip from the future :)
Thanks for your echo and re... it is appreciated
Wow!
Most melancholy is homemade which is, I suppose, what is so melancholic about it. I like the way you rip them apart with the magic wand, and the many holes and new rooms in the image.
The better you look the more you see.
Thanks
