REDHEADS (AND SOMETIMES BLONDS) IN MOVIES

The movie ..well, let's just say that anyone can have his/her thoughts about it.

But the poster is beautiful. There's tenderness. Lust. Joy. Contentment.

JE PENSE DONC JE SUIS

I think
Therefore
I am

Nonody can think in my place
Nobody can believe in my place
Nobody can plan, live and generate
In my place

Descartes (Cartesius) understood it centuries ago.
We have gone back hundreds and hundreds of years in history
With so-called Islamic Terrorists
Using the same methods as
Catholic Inquisition was using

In the end
Religion is a weapon
And
We need to destroy the weapon
With reason
With well-being
With a sense of belonging
All together
For our future
and
Above all for our Children's
Tomorrow

GOD IS THE ENEMY

In all times
In his name
An unknown number of people
Were
Killed,
Tortured,
Tormented,
Discriminitated
Where is the God of Beauty
Where is the God of Goodness
Where is the God of Mankind
God is a lie
The only reason
Is
In our Reason
In
Our Brain.

Pending that
That brain hasn't been
Brainwashed
and
Indoctrinated

Jean-Gabriel Domergue's paintings are a lovely mix of naïveté and sensuality, with an overwhelming feeling of freshness. You can find more about him HERE.

I HATE SEPTEMBER

I hate September
Despite all praises
And oh's and ah's
For its colourful foliages

To me it's the gateway
To Winter and cold
With shorter days
And longer darkness
I hate September
And its deceptive
Sweetness

QUESTIONS

Where has my youth gone ?
Where have my hopes and joys gone ?
Where is my better world ?
I cover my face with both hands
And I wonder:
What became of us ?

WHERE HAS LOVE GONE ?

Everywhere
Frowning brows
and
Deeply etched lines
Open, demanding hands
Anguished faces
And not a sign
Of hope
Is this the better world
We were supposed to hand over
To our sons and daughters ?

George Gordon Byron, Lord Byron. 1788–1824

600. She walks in Beauty

SHE walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that 's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellow'd to that tender light	5
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impair'd the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o'er her face;	10
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.

And on that cheek, and o'er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,	15
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!
