Enjoy your weekend



Words are not enough, but perhaps poetry can give it a shot

At the head of all is God, Lord of Heaven.
Then comes Prince Torlonia, Lord of Earth.

Then comes the armed guard of Prince Torlonia.
Then come the hounds of the armed guard of Prince Torlonia.

Then nobody else.
And still nobody else.

And still again nobody else.

Then come the farmers.

Powerful stuff from Fontemara by Ignazio Silone.
All this emotion makes me feel thirsty. What do you think? Flavoured water? Mus'nt spoil onself in these times of strife.

Hell.

Apt description for the picture. Glad I came here, and thanks for paying a visit to TCP.

Not at all. Thank you. Someday I will have time to fill the hole in my early years at your site.
