text: THIS MARRIAGE
May these vows and this marriage be blessed.
May it be sweet milk,
this marriage, like wine and halvah.
May this marriage offer fruit and shade
like the date palm.
May this marriage be full of laughter,
our every day a day in paradise.
May this marriage be a sign of compassion,
a seal of happiness here and hereafter.
May this marriage have a fair face and a good name,
an omen as welcomes the moon in a clear blue sky.
I am out of words to describe
how spirit mingles in this marriage.
Jalal al-Din Rumi, 1207-1273 less

Reincarnations: Cor Flammae's debut concert with Queer Arts Festival | July 24th, 2014
Introduction:
There once lived a Man in a Castle, and a strange man was he.
He shunned the Countess’ parties; he yawned at town meetings;
he would not let the doctor take his pulse; he did not go to church on Sundays.
Oh what a strange man is the Man in the Castle!
First Madrigal:
Ev’ry Sunday afternoon, soft winds fanning the fading sun,
all the respectable folk went out walking slowly on the pink promenade by the sea.
Proud husbands velvety-plump, with embroider’d silk-pale ladies.
At four o’clock they all greeted each other; They spoke ill of each other at six:
“How d’you do?” “Very well, thank you.”
“Have you heard?” “Pray, do tell me.”
“Tcha tcha tcha tcha tcha ra tcha ra tcha...”
“How funny, how amusing, how odd! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!”
“How well you look!” “How pretty your dress!”
“Thank you.” “Thank you.” “Good-bye.” “Good-bye.”
“Isn’t she a gossip!” “Isn... less
