INDIVIDUATION

This excessive introversion, endless focus on the person, man, it irks me to the core: round and round to no avail, like a snake that eats its tail, what an Ouro-boro-bore! 

IS

There is in us a sadness that always was and always will 
be. We can do everything to winnow it out or do nothing 
at all. It is as old as the hills, a price we all must pay for 
being.

SWITTERBEET

All the old medicines tasted so bitter: now they taste so fruity, but life is shitter. 

EXPECTING

...never arrive and the pain of it is great you never arrive and the pain of it is great you never arrive and the pain...

PLYMOUTH

Almost destroyed in the Blitz, now it's all concrete and looks pretty shit. 

LAMENT

disheartened trying to cope with the disbrainened 

BOOK REVIEW - A PATH OF BLADES

A Path of Blades by R.E. Sanders
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this and couldn't put it down once it had its hooks in. The world and its inhabitants are so well depicted, from the people and places to the food and religious customs, and the intrigue and action are really solid. It's not the type of thing I usually read, so I don't know what the genre expectations are, but I found the relative fragility of the main character to be a huge plus. One of those books that makes you realise how strong the indie author game is these days. Highly recommended.

UNCLE RICHARD

anything but flash this is how I'd describe you also brilliant 

UNDONE

Bill, an experienced cruise ship chef, once had his hands full with the prep, 
when a portly guest came sauntering in, which was neither unusual nor the done thing, 
and asked him, What are those? To which Bill replied, Escargot. 
The guest, he put one in his mouth then gave a most disapproving look. 
A bit chewy, right? Bill said, straight-faced. You'llfind they're better when they're cooked. 

THE FEAR
