i first read this in high school and have always loved it ...

WHY so pale and wan, fond lover?
Prithee, why so pale?
Will, when looking well can't move her,
Looking ill prevail?
Prithee, why so pale?

Why so dull and mute, young sinner?
Prithee, why so mute?
Will, when speaking well can't win her,
Saying nothing do 't?
Prithee, why so mute?

Quit, quit for shame! This will not move;
This cannot take her.
If of herself she will not love,
Nothing can make her:
The devil take her!

dangit. there's this other poem i LOVE LOVE LOVE. I can't remember the name of it!!! It was something like ... you are so bright when i look at you it's like i'm looking at the sun, and when i look away everything else in the world looks dull in comparison. i WISH i could find that one. gggrrr, it was given to me my senior year of hs and i have since lost it! i kept the 'love note' type letters given to me all together (there were like 4 total, like i'm some big casanova or something! hahahah) - well, i lost one so i lost them all. boooo!

anyway, i'm hungry. i'm going to do a little shopping at publix and get a pressed publix sub.

also, there's another outing for THIS WEEKEND. It's TATTOOFEST in Tampa and it's posted about in the SGFL group, so go read up on it biotch.
