Though I sang in my chains like the sea

[sovay]

There will be a coherent post about Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End when I have slept. For now, I will say only that any film that fuses the underworld and the sea cannot disappoint me entirely, and that was quite possibly the best marriage ever. Spoilers to be discussed at length tomorrow. Points to lignota, navrins, and gaudior for all owning more piratical hats than me. (I tied my hair back with a black ribbon. I maintain it was appropriate to the period. My brother took photographs when I got back.) I crash now.

"I'll live in the wastes," he said. "Once every hundred years, you will shine out of the sea and I'll come to you, or I will draw you into the winds with my harping . . ."
—Patricia McKillip, Harpist in the Wind (1979)

In fairness I must confess that I do not own any piratical hats at this time. I simply have piratical hair, and an awesome girlfriend who provides piratical hats for me when I need them.

(I do have some intention of rectifying the omission when a convenient opportunity presentis itself.)
