ஜ~§The Question Of The Day§~ஜ


RIP John Lennon. The list of sudden and unexpected celebrity deaths is long—Princess Di, Heath Ledger, Kurt Cobain, Marilyn Monroe, and many more. Which one affected you the most on an emotional level?

Personally, Marilyn Monroe. And she died before I was born. Before I was even a twinkle in an eye.

A Route of Evanescence

A ROUTE of Evanescence
With a revolving Wheel--
A Resonance of Emerald--
A Rush of Cochineal--
And every Blossom on the Bush
Adjusts its tumbled Head--
The mail from Tunis, probably,
An easy Morning's Ride--

Emily Dickinson
