Cellar Door

Musik: Glosoli - Sigur Ros
Kleiden: Birmingham protest shirt and PJ bottoms
Filme: Mean Girls (Waters)
Buchen: A Season In The Life Of Emmanuel by Marie-Claire Blais

Tolkien discovered that linguistically the words 'cellar door' were the most beautiful in the English language. Say them to yourself; let the syllables slide from your lips like a smooth-flowing current in a river; feel the softness of them, like the folds of morning bedsheets. You understand?

O cellar door, cellar door
You'll be there forevermore,
For I am standing on the brink;
Staring, abyss - black as ink;
Falling, crawling - drunk despised,
Met with stares of wandering eyes.
I'm nothing but a Stella whore,
Standing at the cellar door.
