Shameless fantasizing

Costume season is here again. This year, I think I want to dress up as Aminta, the gypsy maiden in Don Juan Triumphant.


You have brought me / to that moment / where words run dry / to that moment / where speech disappears / into silence / silence . . .


The tableaux won't be complete without the masked Don.

You have come here / in pursuit of your deepest urge / in pursuit of that wish / which till now / has been silent / silent . . .

Together we'll stage our version of a "passion-play" :)





Past all thought of "if" or "when" / no use resisting: abandon thought / and let the dream descend




When will the blood / begin to race / the sleeping bud / burst into bloom? / When will the flames at last
consume us?







Past the point of no return / the final threshold / the bridge is crossed / so stand and watch it burn...

Aaarrrghh...I've been strolling past the Palais Garnier one too many times this week. Maybe I should so something about this *fantasy* by ------ --- ---- ------ -- -- this weekend ;)
