"Hold me close," cooed the dove who was stuffed with sawdust and diamonds

This morning, I was listening to Joanna Newsom and

I wasn't born of a whistle or milked from a thistle at twilight
no, I was all horns and thorns, sprung out fully formed, knock-kneed and upright
so: enough of this terror
we deserve to know light
and grow evermore lighter and lighter
you would have seen me through
but I could not undo that desire

oh, desire...

And I don't know why.

I have to go back to school Monday, and I do not want to. First, however, is Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros tomorrow night. And then school. Bleh.

I know this picture is old but God, is he sexy.
