Elenore Plaisted Abbott (1875-1935), 'Lamia & Hermes', ''The International Studio'', #266, March 1919
Source
"Lamia" is a narrative poem written by the English poet John Keats…The poem tells how the god Hermes hears of a nymph who is more beautiful than all. Hermes, searching for the nymph, instead comes across Lamia, trapped in the form of a serpent. She reveals the previously invisible nymph to him and in return he restores her human form. She goes to seek a youth of Corinth, Lycius, while Hermes and his nymph depart together into the woods. The relationship between Lycius and Lamia, however, is destroyed when the sage Apollonius reveals Lamia's true identity at their wedding feast, whereupon she seemingly disappears and Lycius dies of grief."

"[The Last Great American Dynasty] is not about you, but it is all about you. Even though it's not till the very end when you spin it around, even though the story's about someone else, I think it's the most revealing thing. It's so deeply personal. It really hits you in the gut when you hear that at the end."

the beatles are so funny bc they split up bc of soooo many internal issues (that are 0% yoko) and big egos. and then you have fleetwood mac with so many Messy relationships within the band, who decided to release 'go your own way' as the lead single to their magnum opus and put 'silver springs' on the b-side. and then rumours doesn't break them. they still make music together for years after, having members sing backing on tracks that are about them. like. it's so funny.
