fearful symmetry

the legs have it

These violent delights have violent ends.

something wicked this way comes

seeing is devouring

"Seeing is devouring. The things we see are less the emblems of its victories than the limits of its expansion. … Some resist this voracious fascination; others yield to it only for a moment, seized by a vision that no longer knows what it perceives; many hasten—unconsciously?—toward the ecstasy that will be the end of their world."

Michel de Certeau
