Dark is a way and light is a place

Embers at First Light:  A Child’s Rage

Inspired by Dylan Thomas’ “Do not go gentle into that good night”Personal adaptation of Dembe Zuma’s Final Monologue

A shared destiny. With silent certainty, death awaits us all. Death’s significance is inherently dissolved by the inevitability of fate’s call. What truly matters? Our relentless search; what we pursue, what we discover. how to heal, how to love, how to grow.   How we Live. We cherish these children, more than anyone will ever know. Their remarkable refusal to go quietly into that good night. Their  fight  for  life. A  fight  in  spite. Imposed by dusk in countless ways, yet fiercely committed to the day’s embrace. When confronted by the silence of twilight, they defy in rage.  The  rage  of  life, To rage against the dying of the light. A blaze to capture moments of peace, play, and joy. Their journey—an innocent and curious endeavour to explore life with an unwavering passion—is perhaps the most profound path one can take. Inconceivable that their spark would fade—freed of wake, into that good night. Our time with them, our time together, is never about an ending. It is always about the odyssey, about discovery, about a child’s everlasting reminder—showing us, imploring us; to rage. Do  not  play  gentle  in  this  fight. Rage. Tend  the  embers  of  their  bright  light. Rage,  rage  and  ignite—

William S Burroughs with Alan Ansen (whom Allen described as an “eccentric expatriate, Harvard educated polymath, secretary Amanuensis to W.H.Auden in early ‘40s Age of Anxiety, also helped type/edit Burroughs’ Naked Lunch & other mss. Tangier 1957-61 on visits.) Snapped by Allen outside the San Remo Cafe, their regular hangout, McDougal Street,  Greenwich Village Fall 1953. This is an alternate of a better known photo of the two.

NYC historian John Joseph writes: The “Remo”, as it was affectionately called, was part of the trifecta of the hippest bars in Greenwich Village that included the Kettle of Fish and Minetta Tavern down the street – places with legendary customers and stories of their own. Unlike the White Horse Tavern whose clientele consisted mainly of the radicals of the 1930s and 40s, the San Remo catered more to this new disaffected generation of artists and writers reacting to the sterile atmosphere of Eisenhower-era America.  Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, James Baldwin, Frank O’Hara and Gore Vidal were just a handful of this new crop making the San Remo their headquarters to shake things up. It was here that Ginsberg first met Dylan Thomas and in the early 1950s Judith Malina and Julian Beck’s Living Theatre often met and partied here while the troupe was housed nearby at the Cherry Lane Theatre.

Concentrated summer in one picture🌞🌼 Summer for me is strongly associated with childhood and I don’t know other authors apart from Ray Bradbury and Dylan Thomas whose reminiscences about childhood are so raw and vivid. Since you all must have read “Dandelion Wine”, I’ll recommend “Holiday Memory” by Dylan Thomas for those who want to live summer like a child. As for the scent of summer, for me it will always be camomile because no matter where I spent my school holiday - in the city or countryside - camomiles were everywhere, in abundance. Incidentally, this camomile perfume’s name is Mémoire d’une Odeur, so imagine what it means for a perfectionist that I am 😉 #bookstagram #instabookstagram #instabookstagrammer #instaperfume #whattoreadinsummer #whattoreadnext #whattoread #summerbooks #booksaboutchildhood #raybradbury #dandelionwine #dylanthomas #quiteearlyonemorning #welshauthor #welshpoet #welshpoetry #shortstorycollection #essays #greentowntrilogy #americanauthors #americanliterature #scentoftheday #scentofsummer #memoireduneodeur #gucciperfume (at Tallinn, Estonia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPyLoo7LnEu/?utm_medium=tumblr

Go Gently into that Dark Night

In all that is earthly another dimension is held

Not many sense it but you can taste it in the sweet saliva of the morning dew.

Embrace those that make you know what life is:

To give and to take.

To birth and to kill.

To fill your purest nature with real destiny.

Not of this world, but of the Universe.

The stars that send light throughout vacuums of space

As order is set by those who know their place.

And know that the microscopic atoms are in fact the same as thyself.

For the true glory of life comes int he knowledge, the study and acceptance of the deepest deaths.

Wealth is not superficial, then.

It is the bones that are left - meticulous sculptures of what was.

So do go gently into that dark night.

Old age should not burn and rave at close of day;

Rise, Rise with the dying of the light.
