vision

Par la force d'une cuisson mutuelle
les ingrédients deviennent amers et vieux,
La chaleur coagule les liquides ;
Qui sont comme des poussières sur une fenêtre éclairée,
Devenu "cendre morte", je serai uni au silence suprême.

desanormal asked: Hello! in your November 11th post, the author of the painting is Vrubel, and the portrayed being is most probably a demon (you'll understand me if you'll see this painter's work), not angel. sorry for being so moron :)

you’re talking about this painting? i’m sorry to say but this is not a demon, it’s a serie of mythological creatures he created. Originally it’s called “Царевна-лебедь” in Russian which is translated as The Swan Princess.
