A Letter To Bernie


Dear Bernie,

It is important to search for the light in the overwhelming darkness. This is a good example

Deo Iuvante

I meant to say that this is one of my posts where I set-out to sing formless, rhapsodic prose and end up with wordspew. It's served “Bob Dylan” well, and shuts-up people in the office especially if you throw in a few Greek, Latin or German words. If you know what they mean, um so besser but if they sound frische, who's to care?

Strange too, are the beasts who deny their malady.

Life often takes some unexpected turns and often holds more than a few surprises. Not all off them are necessarily bad.

One surprise is to find that on my modest antiquarian bookshelf, sits Malachi Blake's copy of Seneca's Morals.

Another surprise is having an antiquarian bookshelf, in the first place.
