HE SAID, MARIE, MARIE, HOLD ON TIGHT

And when we were children, staying at the archduke's,
My cousin's, he took me out on a sled,
And I was frightened. He said, Marie,
Marie, hold on tight. And down we went.
In the mountains, there you feel free.
I read, much of the night, and go south in the winter.

~ The Waste Land, "The Burial of The Dead", Eliot

early mornings are full of ache. i intend to nurture quietness.

this term--physically demanding, requires physical discipline. early classes, late night classes in the heart of winter, also many classes and many books, science class too. good for me, will make me strong. we will all become strong.

Comments:
hey love. i have no space for words these days, i dont know why. i hope you are well, and happy. you will be strong.
