Iron & Wine, Woman King:
Hundred years, hundred more Someday we may see a Woman king, bloodshot eye Thumb down and starting to weep. -- The minute I heard this song, I just thought: Sarah. She never wanted to be the ruler of this place. But with those childish words of victory crowed long ago, the clock was set in motion, the meandering, tangled path of the woman-child set to collide with the heart of the Labyrinth. But no, she was not commanded to be its queen. A queen presupposes a king to rule her, love her, desire her - and she had none. No - the Labyrinth had chosen a Woman King. And all of her long long days and months and years, she was cursed to shed blood, and do terrible deeds - to preserve a kingdom she never wanted to own. Pale, tall, and grim, the green in her eyes has hardened to crystalline chips that never waver as she surveys battle after battle, death after death. Once, just once, she remembers the moment, centuries ago, where a monstrous, beautiful, fair-haired king had opened his hands, his heart, and promised to grant her every desire. And after that, she remembers how the world fell down. Then the Woman King, destroyer of realms and mistress of the souls of men, bows down and weeps. -- ANGST OVER! The idea's been swimming in my head for AGES, ever since I heard this song. I'm so glad I've gotten my daily distraction well out of the way. The assumption now, is that' I'll freakin' start doing my work now. Yay! Sarah belongs to the Labyrinth who belongs to Jim Henson. Woman King belongs to Iron & Wine. |

If I told you there was something I wanted to tell you but I shouldn't tell you because I've already told you about wanting to tell you therefore telling you what I wanted to tell you, have I told you anything at all?

Slightly distractingly large/black-outlined foot.
But it's so evilly heartening to see someone else go down under a pack of plot bunnies... *stands back and watches the show*

Art's equally tiring and time-consuming, trust me on that. At least you have the discipline to know what you have to do...
I'm just telling myself it's ok to lie back and watch movies/play games cause I need the input for my imagination. Heh.
