And This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things

 

Do NOT say the name ” Macbeth ” in a  theater everyone knows that.

It’s bad luck.

As Hannah said on twitter :The devil works hard but the updater of the Macbeth Wikipedia page works harder”

– sorry to say Wikipedia has already pulled this down:

Denzel Washington and Frances McDormand in ‘Macbeth’

 

 

The Invite

RDP Sunday: IMPETUS

When metal grinds against bone

and  a laugh becomes a scream

when I don’t know if I am awake

or still trapped inside of a dream

I will always reach for my pen

and ask you

as sweet as I sweet can be-

to join me.

Getting Some Culture Is FUN.

Manga Me-
a.m. moscoso

I created this at Google Arts and Culture– it’s a Manga character, but I actually based it on my own features and hair. LOL. I Look like a monster and NOT like a cute Manga character. So all in all I’d call it a winner.

The Burning

RDP Friday- FLAMBEAU

For some RDP prompts  I usually point out that I may have gone off the tracks, but for today’s prompt I not only went off the tracks I caught a plane and flew over the point. But I’m the one who contributed this prompt so hahahahaha. Sorry not sorry and lol.

When I was 14 we read Romeo and Juliet in our English class. It wasn’t easy to understand and it wasn’t a lot of fun at first but I did learn a lot about Shakespeare and poetry and classical lit, so that was good.

HOWEVER- it was my friend Darrin who pointed out in class one day the less then pure imagery  when Romeo says:

Oh, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!

William Shakespeare

I still snicker a little when people talk about ‘burning torches’ and that’s okay to- a little laugh is almost as good as having a big laugh- both of which are necessary to make it through these modern times.

So for today’s RDP prompt I’ve chosen some artwork that feature torches and songs about fire because together torches, to me- and Darrin- will always represent passion.
