Ælfwine & all.

"someone told me tonight that watercolors are like poems, while oil paintings and acrylics are like novels. and I can’t quit thinking about it." --@andrea_jurjevic

Busy hexagon.

Vergil VI. 125-136

Gentle is the journey · to Hades: ajar
Its door down · night & day gapes;
But to take back · your time there & return
To the shared surface · that’s what’s sheer—this work.
A handful have · by the Thunderer’s help
Or by valiant virtue · reverted to the skies,
Semi-divine. · Cocytus circles
With dark waves · that dense wood amidst:
Still, if you’d strive · extremely, & the Styx
Ford & further · face twice
Its Tartarean rinse · & the prospect proves
Your inalterable aim: · enact this, next.

Uncanny nest.
