The Second Coming - W.B Yeats

Tue Jun 23, 2009, 4:46 AM
  • Mood: Gloomy
  • Listening to: Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
  • Reading: The Hour I First Believed - Wally Lamb
  • Watching: The Lost Room
  • Eating: Vichysoisse
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in the sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?



One of my favourite poems, it chills me to the bone. And of course it represents other things in my world too.

~The Plague: Get It. Feed It. Spread It. Bitches.
Just a little reminder, =Black-White-Club is a club. 
It shows in the messages that you have faved a dev. 
If you would be kind enough to remove it from your fav's, then fav the image the artist made :D
 You can find links to the artist’s deviation on each submission in the club :D



If you have already removed it then ignore this message :D. 
There does seem to be a DA bug where even after faving a dev, then removing it, it still shows up in the message center as you saving it. 
Again sorry about this note if you have already removed the fav, and faved the correct dev.



Please don’t ask us what dev you faved, we'd love to help you out but we are pretty busy here so you will need to go though your favs list if you can’t remember :nod:
