Crikey, am I PISS BORED with this Traditions in Poetry assignment. I am so apathyarms about coming back to university. This is either a response to graduation or the epic fail portion of my dissertation shenanigans (more likely the latter). But... write a sonnet and explain the form; should be 1k. Analyse other sonnet; also 1k. Write presentation on Satan's status as hero/anti-hero in Paradise Lost. Guys. This should be sort of awesome! And yet: I don't give a toss. I just. don't. care.

I did take the sonnet-writing task as another opportunity to write the Hades-kidnaps-Persephone story. BECAUSE IT IS FAB. (GUYS. She goes from being THE CHILD/MAIDEN to being THE IRON QUEEN WHOSE NAME ONE SHOULD NOT SPEAK. Persephone is fucking hardcore. I am also of the opinion that somewhere in that whole mess of a kidnapping malarkey, Persephone obviously gets on board with being the person that she is and falls for her captor. Which. GUYS. PERSEPHONE IS ALL STOCKHOLMED. On a bike!)

UGH. Why isn't the week over yet? (I fail. FAIL.)

I just. don't. care.

Well. That sounds like Spring term pop-gun brains + DISS ARMS O'WOE

Because once, in a long-ago time known as Fall term, we strode toward the fields of text, our mighty brains hoisted high, high above our stolid stepping feet. But now, the grass greens heedless of our travails, and high above, our anemic minds flitter aimless in the freshening breeze.

Another way to say this is last week I took one look at the really quite interesting set of readings for my philosophy and literature course, rolled my eyes to heaven-grant-me-patience and went to watch the tv for hours.

At this point I feel I need a kick up the behind. But that might actually make it worse, heh.

But really: fandom is generally the answer to everything.
