Mid-Week Libation (12.7.22)

Our Curated Splash of Inspiration and Culture

“One of the great functions of art is to help us imagine what it is like to be not ourselves, what it is like to be someone or something else, what it is like to live in another skin, what it is like to live in another body, and in that sense to surpass ourselves, to go out beyond ourselves.” - Adrienne Rich [https://www.azquotes.com/quote/816351]

The Blue Ridge
by Harriet Monroe (1860-1936)

Still and calm,	
In purple robes of kings,	
The low-lying mountains sleep at the edge of the world.	
The forests cover them like mantles;	
Day and night	        
Rise and fall over them like the wash of waves.	
 
Asleep they reign.	
Silent they say all.	
Hush me, O slumbering mountains—	
Send me dreams.
