Darque rated 15 months ago - An overdue review: Brickgrrl's pages are somber, thoughtful, and calm, full of deep thought and artistic quality, like having an afternoon to yourself in a really good museum. Anyone who has ever wondered what happened to good taste in the post-MySpace era owes it to themselves to spend some t...

Her Highness Still Rules
from the page
With or without makeup, Latifah's face is at the center of her fortune. With her almond-shaped eyes and sweeping cheekbones, she could have been painted by Gauguin, though her beauty is recognizably her own, animated by a warmth, humor and innate elf-confidence most women would kill for. Her stardom, in movies and television, has come from her gifts at playing the underdog or the outsider, the thick girl in body only, whose heart and brain are her best defense against the villainously rich, skinny and cutthroat. You can't help rooting for her.

let me say i am a bit pissed at the pointing out of the thick girl in body part --- she has a fabulous, beautiful body ~memachelle

There are rivers
That I know,
Born of ice
And melting snow,
White with rapids,
Swift to roar,
With no farms
Along their shore,
With no cattle
Come to drink
At a staid
And welcoming brink,
With no millwheel
Ever turning
In that cold,
Relentless churning.
Only deer
And bear and mink
At those shallows
Come to drink;
Only paddles
Swift and light
Flick that current
In their flight.
I have felt
My heart beat high,
Watching
With exultant eye
Those pure rivers
Which have known
No will, no purpose
But their own.

You will recall the gorge of capricious waters
You will recall the gorge of capricious waters
from which throbbing perfumes climbed,
and a bird, from time to time, clothed
with liquid slowness: winter plumage.
You will recall the gifts of the earth:
hot scents, clay of gold,
scrub grasses, mad roots,
bewitched thorns like swords.
You will recall the branch you bore,
branch of shadow and water of silence
branch like a stone of spume.
And that time was as never and always:
we go there where nothing does not await us,
and find all that is waiting there.
--Pablo Neruda
