ungainly laughter




O generation of the thoroughly smug       
and thoroughly uncomfortable,
I have seen fishermen picnicking in the sun,
I have seen them with untidy families,
I have seen their smiles full of teeth
and heard ungainly laughter.
And I am happier than you are,
And they were happier than I am;
And the fish swim in the lake
and do not even own clothing.

- Ezra Pound - Salutation

Märchen


The German fairytale castles are remembering me being a kid reading fairytale books in bed. Where good and evil are clear and there was always a happy end to stories. Life is simple and you know were you stand as a character. Sometimes I like black and white, where shades of grey feel confusing and restless..
