Melpomene must you afflict the weaving of my days with the unforgiving touch of one who drinks sorrow Implore the Fates on my behalf to pluck their hues from dewdrops from sunshine and to discontinue that dreadful scarlet and the color or night as these colors are not en vogue for this season of my life Melpomene diminish your dominion over the frail strands of my existence before Atropos s n i p s [This message has been edited by Jannel (edited 03-24-2000).] |

thank you all for your kind words. for anyone unfamiliar with greek myth- melpomene is the muse of tragedy, and atropos is one of the three fates, who weave the thread of our lives. atropos cuts the thread of life at its end. |
