All Things Drink

Fruitful earth drinks up the rain;

Trees from earth drink that again;

The sea drinks the air, the sun

Drinks the sea, and him the moon.

Is it reason then, d'ye think,

I should thirst when all else drink?

Anakreon

Cracks Screencaps

I watching Cracks last night (it seemed rather odd to be watching freezing cold English weather in the simmering humidity of a Sydney summer) and was complete enamoured with the costumes and sets. Of course the movie itself was great too, like a creepier version of Enid Blyton’s Malory Towers.
