#frailties

[vinthermano]

It is a sad song.

We keep singing even so.

Over and over.

[j-august]

He only re-reads these days, but not literature any more, which is a flea market of frailties. People love literature without realizing that such a love is a surrender to the tastes of alpha cultures, patriarchs and leftists. But millions choose to surrender, unflagging in their search for a mention of themselves in the works of others; something, anything that reminds them that the world, despite everything, is about them. Most of reading is probably a mere selfie.

We who are strong [in our convictions and of robust faith] ought to bear with the failings and the frailties and the tender scruples of the weak; [we ought to help carry the doubts and qualms of others] and not to please ourselves. - Romans 15:1 | Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC) Amplified Bible, Classic Edition Copyright © 1954, 1958, 1962, 1964, 1965, 1987 by The Lockman Foundation.

Eurydice dies.

Orpheus walks straight to hell

just to bring her back.

[vinthermano]

So he sings his song

and the flowers sprouted from

the cracks on the wall.

[vinthermano]

They are yet to know

that nothing ends well for them.

It is a sad tale.

[vinthermano]

She fixes her gaze.

The voice is too familiar.

Her tears start falling.

[vinthermano]

And he finds her there—

wallowing in memories

of the love she lost.
