"Spin Madly On" theme by Margarette Bacani. Powered by Tumblr.

Her parents no longer offer me wine

     now that her tender life is in his hands.

No, for me it’s just cold water, the kind

     she used to draw and carry - weeping over me - 

from the well where once I took her by the waist, and kissed

     her neck as she arched it back, letting tender words drop from

        her lips.

—Theognis, 6th or 7th century BCE
