my love is building a building... (XII)

by E. E. Cummings

my love is building a building
around you, a frail slippery
house, a strong fragile house
(beginning at the singular beginning

of your smile)a skilful uncouth
prison, a precise clumsy
prison(building thatandthis into Thus,
Around the reckless magic of your mouth)

my love is building a magic, a discrete
tower of magic and(as i guess)

when Farmer Death(whom fairies hate)shall

crumble the mouth-flower fleet
He'll not my tower,
laborious, casual

where the surrounded smile
hangs

breathless

we lean on each other to eat the wind.

my my, it's been awhile.

here are some of my latest scans-mostly from the grande tour of oh ten with a smattering of summer+morocco thrown in.

i hope you enjoy them...and please feel free to comment on favorites or least interesting shots--y'all know how i LOVE feedback. (+especially cause i've got my grad school deadline coming up and am trying to get the most solid grouping together...so please don't be shy;)

besos.
