A Sunday elegy for my earbud munched by a voracious fluff.
Ah, brave earbud, lost too soon,
Silenced mid-chorus, no warning.
You played sweet tunes - now you’re gone,
Digested with pride at dawning.
No grave for you, no stone, no weep -
Just a squeaky toy and a clean bill of health…
Though I still hear your final beep -
Rest in pieces, lost to the fluff.

#Elegy (2008)
An aging professor's affair with a much younger woman forces him to confront love, fear, and vulnerability when life takes an unexpected turn.

Happy to report the addition of the 1843 edition of _Elegia di Tommaso Gray_ to the #ThomasGrayArchive digital library. The volume contains 12 Italian, 5 Latin, 1 Hebrew, 6 French, and 4 German #Elegy translations:
"Elegia Pacis"
Inventor of the Forge, I swear
The Day you forced a breath of air
Across red coals is cursed for all.
For Axe has yielded to the Maul,
And Farmer to the armored Knight.
The Shield and Sword are shining bright
While Rake and Plow are left to rust…
And all our dreams are turned to Dust.
“With stillness that is almost Paradise.
Darkness more clear than noonday holdeth her,
Silence more musical than any song;”
- Christina Rossetti, 1862

New editions always add new complications in terms of game design. Some steps forward, some steps back. It's character creation time again for *Elegy*.
