Water Dragon |
From: The Little Prince by Rob Chapman
"A softly-spoken, drinking, smoking, womanising Narcissus with psychosomatic asthma. A strutting, intense egotist with a gentle, shy smile that played across his face whenever the TV camera lingered long enough. A musical purist blessed, or cursed, with pop star looks. Eulogised by many. "Brian Jones, with his puffed-up Pisces, all-knowing, suffering fish eyes. Brian always ahead of style. Perfect Brian," as Lou Reed put it in Fallen Knights And Fallen Ladies, his 1972 essay on rock deaths." |

Sonnet XVIII
"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course, untrimm'd:
but thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest;
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee. |

This is from 'The Elements of The Celtic Tradition' by Caitlin Matthews.
A selection as food for thought:
"There seem to have been four forms of sacrificial death, one for each of the elements:
hanging death by air
drowning death by water
cremation death by fire
burial alive death by earth
It is known that individual victims were slain by these methods and that their death throes became the focus of a gruesome kind of divination. The victims were usually prisoners of war, outcasts or criminals."....
also,
"We know that among Germanic tribes, the goddess Nerthus supervised such activities as the ritual drowning of her victims."

"Terrible
a horse at night
standing hitched alone
in the still street
and whinnying
as if some sad nude astride him
had gripped hot legs on him
and sung
a sweet high hungry
single syllable" |
