Marbled Monday

This week's Marbled Monday is Knee Deep in the Atlantic, a collection of poems with contributions by Linda Parker, Robie Liscomb, Theodore Enslin, and Michael Tarachow. It was printed and sewn in 1981 at Pentagram Press in Markesan, Wisconsin, in a limited edition of 164 copies signed by the contributors.

The Irish Moss (Carrageenan) used for the marbling was gathered by Theodore Enslin near his home in Milbridge, Maine, and by Linda Parker, Robie Liscomb, and Michael Tarachow at Eastern Point, Massachusetts. The marbling itself was done by Liscomb and Tarachow and doesn't seem to be a particular pattern. The text is printed in handset Deepdene type, with Duchess titling, on mould-made Nideggen paper. The signed colophon illustration is by Bonnie Stillman of Markesan.

Michael Tarachow, the proprietor of Pentagram Press, was born and raised in Milwaukee, and for a time even worked in our library in the early 1970s!

Ever since Leah's passing, the old Jones home had stayed empty, only the graveyard still in use and kept in the general family ownership. With nobody left to look after it, the house had quickly become overgrown with plants, but the family did not mind. If anything, it felt as though their ancestors were given new life through them.

The funeral was not just for Edward, either. Just that morning, Tilly's partner Everett had passed away, too. Since him and Edward had been friends since school years, before him and Tilly had even met, it did not come as a surprise, though that did not make it any less sad.

Christine was now the only member of the family left that had actually been born in the old house. With that thought in the back of her mind, she looked upon the graves in front of her, knowing that it likely was her turn next. Her husband Parker, who was stood just behind her, seemed to notice her pensiveness and gently stroked her shoulder, while their three children almost subconsciously moved closer in support.

Once everyone had broken off into separate groups, Emma sat down on the stairs with her brother, accompanied by their partners, for some catching up time. It had been a while since they had talked, apart from general family gatherings, since Emma was busy with the kids during the day, and Kenneth was often with his band at nights.

Aside from that, Kenneth and Tia had been busy with more than just music. Their romantic involvement had come to a level at which they had decided to just go and tie the knot. Feeling so elated after one of their performances, they had ran off to the town hall to elope, just the two of them.

Of course, Emma felt a bit sad about the fact that she was not at her brother's wedding, but she understood that a quick ceremony without big announcements was much more his style. Mostly, she was happy that he had found his way in life, and Tia was a lovely person, so he was in good hands. Deep down, she knew their father would have thought the same, and she made sure Kenneth knew about this, too. And still, even if not on the wedding day itself, the two siblings could have a late celebration some other day, or Emma would make sure to remind Ken about it until they did.

[TRANSCRIPT]

Emma: "Gosh, I wish we would have had more time."

Kenneth: "Tell me about it."

Tatiana: "Right, I now wish he'd have been there with us."

Kenneth: "Me too."

Emma: "Been where with you?"

Kenneth: "Well, in between gigs, we sort of... eloped."

Emma: "What!? And you didn't invite me?"

Kenneth: "Hey, the point of eloping is that nobody's invited."

Tatiana: "We would have, had it been any other way."

Kenneth: "Though now I wonder how it might've been with Dad around."

Emma: "Oh, you know he's always been your biggest supporter. He'd be proud either way. But you've got to invite Niall and me for dinner some time to make it up to us!"

Am I the only one who wishes the shows and movies space werewolves, sing it loud, raise the roof, sing it louder, and voltage from Liv and Maddie were real shows?

I can't be the only one

I would kill to see those kinds of shows. I would be like Joey and Parker and totally fangirling over those shows SOOOOO HARD.

Also, I would not hate it if there was a drama called Linda and Heather.
