pj harvey: the words that maketh murder

tobruk, libya – militiamen loyal to moammar gadhafi clamped down in tripoli, with the sound of gunfire ringing in the air, while protesters who control much of the eastern half of libya claimed new gains in cities and towns closer to the heart of gadhafi's regime in the capital. (ap, 02/24/11)

lotus flower and the hedonic calculus

pure synesthesia...

"intense, long, certain, speedy, fruitful, pure--

such marks in pleasures and in pains endure.

such pleasures seek if private be thy end:

if it be public, wide left them extend

such pains avoid, whichever be thy view:

if pains must come, let them extend to few."
