Birth: Desymbolisation is Evil!

A Violent Symbol is born. It is violent and yet nothing more than a symbol. But it only wants to be modest or modestly violent, when it was thrown into this huge and hugely disenchanted land. “Go back to the Symbol!”, it said; I agreed with a lopsided grin–blessed is somehow the place which is bewitched.

Nothing Gold Can Stay
by Robert Frost

Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
