myth-tery of life


Egon Schiele

“Invisible threads are the strongest ties.”

...the sovereignty of a mad heart that has attained, 
in its solitude, the limits of the world that wounds it, 
that turns it against itself and 
abolishes it...

An Ancient Chinese proverb says “An invisible red thread connects those destined to meet, despite the time, the place, and despite the circumstances. The thread can be tightened or tangle, but will never be broken.”

The red string of fate. According to this myth, the gods tie an invisible red string around the ankles of those that are destined to meet each other in a certain situation or help each other in a certain way.

Death Cab for Cutie - Transatlanticism  "If you feel discouraged that there's a lack of color here, please don't worry, lover. It's really bursting at the seams, absorbing everything—the spectrum's A to Z."

"Self" by EsaNany (deviantART). I have a weird idea bouncing around in my head dealing with red strings of fate and tangles. This beautiful image had the same dark association with red threads (though I'm not sure it was done with the fateful intention) that most art pieces dealing with this mythology seem to lack.
Thread touched by one and in
touching twisted into something
forever unlike all others spun.
Thread touched by one and in
touching withered to nothing.
Sandy Tweed - Curious Corvus IV


  
wants to be unloved, beginning
the sky Purgatory Road, 
the sky a god mouth, a crow.
with its parts, the fetish of her
(...)
rib whittle, unbound feet, beginning
to become vast, nothing you can touch... 
red string of fate

Worse 

 even then your maddening 

 Song, your silence. At the source 

 Of your ice-hearted calling- 

 Drunkeness of the great depths

When the eye
first saw that it must die      When the eye first
Brooding on our origins you
ask  When and I say
Then
nevermore
