I’m a writer (mostly about music), composer, and orchestrator, and a gamer (D&D and video games, both less often than I’d like).
He/him. Often tired.
#NowListening to Webern: 4 pieces for violin and piano by Diamanda La Berge Dramm & Helena Basilova.
Last night the YouTube algorithm recommended the scene between the knight and Death from The Seventh Seal, but it left the autogenerated captions trying to transcribe the Swedish into English.
“Yet” is one of the most powerful words in poetry. One insignificant syllable and it can turn the whole poem around.
My favourite two examples:
# Kobayashi Issa: Haiku #
This world of dew
A world of dew it is indeed,
And yet, and yet…
# Christina Georgina Rossetti: From Sunset To Star Rise # (in attached picture because it’s just slightly too long)
My current D&D group are starting a nautical adventure and I’ve been planning to surprise them with theme music next session. Though, um, I may have gone a little overboard (so to speak).
I love JRPGs. They’ll give you a tutorial for the word “Normal” but not for the combat system.
