final post #4010 #911 #hamlet #grief #antigone #enlightenment

The following was written by Thomas de Constantius, who is perhaps the last man in the world to sound the alarm. It is merely a dance attempt, and a quick one at that. This little girl was up on the fire escape somewhere around 10th street I think on Broadway. She had a conch shell, [...]
