For fall 2011.... my inspiration all comes from grainy super 8 film... with a film noir touch... Gray's Anatomy (no not that lame ass show on the box you idiots are glued to... the book of human anatomy...- have a fucking AMAZING leather bound ribbon tabbed special edition I'm so obsessed!) AND EDGAR ALLAN POE!!!! HARK THE RAVEN AND WELCOME INSIDE MY MIND...
"It is more than probable that I am not understood; but I fear, indeed, that it is in no manner possible to convey to the mind of the merely general reader, an adequate idea of that nervous intensity of interest with which, in my case, the powers of meditation (not to speak technically) busied and buried themselves, in the contemplation of even the most ordinary objects of the universe."
- from "Berenice"
"By the dim light of an accidental lamp, tall, antique, worm-eaten, wooden tenements were seen tottering to their fall, in directions so many and capricious, that scarce the semblance of a passage was discernible between them."
- from "The Man of the Crowd"
"Suddenly a corner was turned, a blaze of light burst upon our sight, and we stood before one of the huge suburban temples of Intemperance–one of the palaces of the fiend, Gin."
- from "The Man of the Crowd"
"It was night, and the rain fell; and falling, it was rain, but, having fallen, it was blood."
"Men have called me mad; but the question is not yet settled, whether madness is or is not the loftiest intelligence– whether much that is glorious– whether all that is profound– does not spring from disease of thought– from moods of mind exalted at the expense of the general intellect."
- from "Eleonora"
"But as in ethics, evil is a consequence of good, so in fact, out of joy is sorrow born. Either the memory of past bliss is the anguish of today, or the agonies which are have their origin in the ecstasies which might have been."
- from "Berenice"
- from "Silence - A Fable"
nevermore... nevermore...
