Marly not at the Green Toad but in Siem Reap, Cambodia, 2009 |
Seek Giacometti’s “The Palace at 4 a.m.” Go back two hours. See towers and curtain walls of matchsticks, marble, marbles, light, cloud at stasis. Walk in. The beggar queen is dreaming on her throne of words…You have arrived at the web home of Marly Youmans, maker of novels, poetry collections, and stories, as well as the occasional fantasy for younger readers.

Alas, I must once again remind large numbers of Chinese salesmen and other worldwide peddlers that if they fall into the Gulf of Spam, they will be eaten by roaming Balrogs. The rest of you, lovers of grace, poetry, and horses (nod to Yeats--you do not have to be fond of horses), feel free to leave fascinating missives and curious arguments.
Nice picture. It's very green.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is very green.
ReplyDeleteI just told somebody commenting on it at fb to wear leaves around her head if she wanted to look younger... Much silliness in progress but--yawn--I am off to bed.
Have a better day tomorrow!
Got about 40 comments on that picture on fb. Should have used it for publicity, maybe.
