Denn nichts ist was war

Dem Leid zu entfliehen

Im sinkenden Rausch

Trost in der Leere

Bricht Bahn zur Unendlichkeit

Nur abwarts der Strom

Because nothing is what was

to escape from suffering

In the sinking frenzy

solace in the void

Breaks a path to infinity

Just down the stream

Princess Candace new year celebration

Princess Candace is working on her statue outside the city of Nemito [some call four rivers] for the four rivers that sector the land. Others call this place Yawakati [for the four districts in different technological times]. She won the right to build her statue on the bay of the city through her success in a gatlopp. It is new years and the city is celebrating but she is busy enjoying herself with her winnings.

IF YOU MADE IT THIS FAR

Do you know Dredd?

I am a huge fan of the film Dredd starring as the top bill, Karl Urban

It's financial utilization, and its approach to a science fiction story that is quite entailed or historied into a one and done movie, i argue need to be commended.

and while we are at it, a look at the film, Underworld

Danse Macabre from Camille Saint-Saëns

Danse Macabre (first performed in 1875) is the name of opus 40 by French composer Camille Saint-Saëns.

The composition is based upon a poem by Henri Cazalis, on an old French superstition:

Zig, zig, zig, Death in a cadence,
Striking with his heel a tomb,
Death at midnight plays a dance-tune,
Zig, zig, zig, on his violin.
The winter wind blows and the night is dark;
Moans are heard in the linden trees.
Through the gloom, white skeletons pass,
Running and leaping in their shrouds.
Zig, zig, zig, each one is frisking,
The bones of the dancers are heard to crack—
But hist! of a sudden they quit the round,
They push forward, they fly; the cock has crowed.
