Excerpt from Ahab's Wife--Sena Jeter Naslund

Nantucket! The home where first I found my body, my feet not so much being pulled into this sandy beach as seeking downward, toes better than roots; then, my mind, built not to chart this blue swell of heaving ocean, but the night sky, where the stars themselves, I do believe, heave and float and spin in fiery passions of their own; Nantucket!--home, finally, of my soul, found on a platform eight-by-eight, the wooden widow's walk perched like a pulpit atop my house. These three gears of myself--body, mind, and soul--mesh here on this small island--Nantucket! Then, why, when I look into the mild, day sky, do the clouds scramble, like letters in the alphabet, and spell not Nantucket, but that first home, Kentucky? And those clouds that did bulge with the image of Ahab show me the map of that state, flat across the bottom and all billowed at the top? I did not consult Ahab about my decision to spend my pregnancy in a rough Kentucky cabin with my mother, instead of staying in the gracious home of a captain's wife on Nantucket. But I wrote him, of course, and sent the letter after him on the ship called the Dove, so he could imagine me aright. That time spent with my mother outdoors in the sweet summer and golden Kentucky autumn was augmented by our indoor companionship of sewing baby smocks and cooking and reading again those great works of literature my mother had brought with her to the wilderness, green-bound books I had read as a child or she had read to me.

e.e. cummings

i carry your heart with me ( i carry it in

my heart) i am never without it (anywhere

i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done

by only me is your doing, my darling)

i fear

no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet( i want

no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)

and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant

and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud

and the sky of the sky of a tree called life: which grows

higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)

and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart.

i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)

Molly Ban----Alison Krauss and The Chieftans

What a haunting song and the Uilleann pipes....

Oh the pipes!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOpY0wQdJ5w

Come all ye young fellows

That handle a gun
Beware of night rambling
By the setting of the sun

And beware of an accident
That happened of late
To young Molly Bán
And sad was her fate

She was going to her uncles
When a shower came on
She went under a green bush
The shower to shun

Her white apron wrapped around her
He took her for a swan
But a hush and a sigh
T'was his own Molly Bán

He quickly ran to her
And found she was dead
And there on her bosom
Many salt tears he shed

He ran home to his father
With his gun in his hand
Saying "Father dear father
I have shot Molly Bán"

Her white apron wrapped around her
He took her for a swan
But a hush and a sigh
T'was his own Molly Bán

He roamed near the place
Where his true love she was slain
He wept bitter tears
But his cries were in vain

As he looked on the lake
A swan glided by
And the sun slowly sank
In the gray ol' sky

Stephen Foster's Song----Slumber My Darling

Slumber my darling

Thy mother is near

Guarding thy dreams

From all terror and fear

Sunlight has past

And the twilight has gone

Slumber my darling

The night's coming on

Sweet visions attend thy sleep

Fondest dearest to me

While others their revels keep

I will watch over thee

Slumber my darling

The birds are at rest

Wandering dews

By the flowers are caressed

Slumber my darling

Til morn's blushing ray

Brings to the world

The glad tidings of day

Fill the dark void

With thy dreaming delight

Slumber thy mother

Will guard thee tonight

Thy pillow shall sacred be

From all outward alarms

Thou... thou art the world to me

In thy innocent charms

Slumber my darling

The birds are at rest

Wandering dews

By the flowers are caressed

Slumber my darling

I'll wrap thee up warm

Pray that the angels

Will shield thee from harm.

Emily Post

Emily Post by Covarrubias (Vanity Fair, December 1933)

"In accepting an invitation for lunch or dinner after which you are going

to a game, or any sort of performance, you must not be late! Nothing is 
more unfair to others who are keen about whatever it is you are going to 
see, than to make them miss the beginning of a performance through your thoughtless selfishness."
