WELL, T.S. ELIOT WAS EVIDENTLY RIGHT ! [THOUGH EDNA HAS A DIFFERENT TAKE]...

 

April is the cruelest month...

“April is the cruelest month, breeding lilacs out of the dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring dull roots with spring rain.” ― T.S. Eliot, The Waste Land.

April this year, not otherwise

Than April of a year ago

Is full of whispers, full of sighs,

Dazzling mud and dingy snow;

Hepaticas that pleased you so

Are here again, and butterflies.

—Edna St. Vincent Millay, “Song of a Second April” 

'3M' as more than just a company name:

           i.e., MEDITATIONS...

'MEDITATIONS IN AN EMERGENCY',

AND

MINDFULNESS...

...and O'HARA'S 'Meditations in an Emergency' has me VERY MUCH longing for MadMen!!!

 ************

IT'S A FIVE SYLLABLE WORD

 

o·le·ag·i·nous

/ˌōlēˈajənəs/

adjective

1. rich in, covered with, or producing oil; oily or greasy.

"fabrics would quickly become filthy in this oleaginous kingdom"

2. exaggeratedly and distastefully complimentary; obsequious.

"candidates made the usual oleaginous speeches in the debate"

Reminds me of this nefarious guy...

His ridiculous comments today (i.e., about guns) truly put him on par with crazy Sidney Powell...

FACT: WHEN A DEATH IS CELEBRATED...

it's because the deceased did not observe the 'good lessons of life' nor did they live their life as an admirable exemplar
