i carry your heart with me

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

ee cummings

Never give all the heart, for love

Never give all the heart, for love
Will hardly seem worth thinking of
To passionate women if it seem
Certain, and they never dream
That it fades out from kiss to kiss;
For everything that's lovely is
But a brief, dreamy, kind delight.
O never give the heart outright,
For they, for all smooth lips can say,
Have given their hearts up to the play.
And who could play it well enough
If deaf and dumb and blind with love?
He that made this knows all the cost,
For he gave all his heart and lost.

This poem is written by William Butler Yeats

She, Of Great Poems and Moments

It was Wednesday 20th September 2006, when I should have been face down in work, typing out code or thinking how to better our work practices when I...

She may be the face I can't forget
The trace of pleasure or regret
Maybe my treasure or the price I have to pay

..When I was distracted by the above lines and forced to read on...

She may be the song that summer sings
May be the chill that autumn brings
May be a hundred different things
Within the measure of a day

The whole poem is beautiful, composed as a song by Charles Aznavour and Herbert Kretzmer. Oh for the love of good poetry. Simple, somewhat cheesy? not really, just damn good. Which all reminds me that I should write some poetry myself or at the very least visit http://poetry.tetto.org

Ciao

Wedding, Margaret Instance and Julian Flitcroft.

Enter a blustery, rainy day on the outskirts of September, swaggering like a cowboy to the bar. Pan the camera to reveal a small sandstone church in a small sandstone suburb, the Rocks, Sydney.

Family and friends converge, scurrying past the rain as it looks the other way for a short time like a bored too small bouncer on a lazy Thursday night. Umbrellas held high and hair momentarily flirting with the wind. The priest, a plump Fr Bernard Gordan, untamed from his years spent studying in Rome, his thick Australian accent and layabout style proving too much for the style and pomp of the Italian capital.

Our groom, tall and handsome propped up by his best man Nero, and his second best man Mr Starr. The audience, playing the risk game of trying not too get to the church so early that they'll look too keen and might actually have to same some prayers in acknowlegement of the owner of the house while still making sure they get an OK seat in which to view the proceedings. Well, no matter what seat you have, you can't change it now, as I see the mother of the bride's face light up and the groom take a longing and beautiful gulp.

Torn between watching the groom and checking out the bride, the audience, looking like they're at a tennis match see the bridesmaids saunter down the aisle, the diminutive and impish Sarah Franklin, followed by Jane with hair so beautifully done that the flowers are jealous. And no, here she comes. Looking regal, looking tall, her father proud beside her, but no eyes are for him and his eyes are all for her, his second daughter to tie the marital knot. Her train nearly as long as she is tall.

The designated movie recorder, plucked from the 1920s picnic with style that flows round the room, and the photographer clickety clack and we are well and truly underway.

The priest takes the early lead as expected, but is quickly overtaken by the first and second readers, brothers Steve and Paul if I'm not very much mistaken. And now on the inside, Bronwyn has a few prayers of the faithful. As expected, the groom lengthens his stride and begins to move up the inside. The bride, not to be outdone starts to feel the pace and she too ups it a notch. The pacey preacher puts forward for a few short bursts and guides the philly and the stallion together before he drops to the back of the pack. And now it's the bride and groom, neck and neck. They eye each other, testing for strengths and weaknesses, as they round the 200 meter mark, with 100 to go they hit their strides in unison and it's going to be a photo.

Or rather, a lot of photos, which are taken mostly indoors as the rain plays its gentle music outside. The reception is to be held at the Lord Nelson, and it's an appropriate place to hold some drinks, nibbles and a toast or two to the bride and groom. With some beautiful words from the best man and some witty comments from the father of the bride it's eat, drink and be merry. With the occasional trip downstairs to check the footy score and beer flowing like the breeze outside, a few cheeky basketball jumps, a dance or two for the happy couple and it's off to Korea for them.

Congratulations Margs and Flit, I wish you all the best,

Of Yobbos and Hamlet ( and Mark Kilmurry )

“One of the most enlightening and engaging productions of Hamlet you’re likely to see in a year.” That’s how Diana Simmons reviewed Mark Kilmurry’s production in the Sunday Telegraph.

Just seven actors brought Shakespeare’s “ripping yarn” as Kilmurry describes it, to life in a thrilling,physical theatre version performed in the round. No props, simple costumes and the raw power of words thrown into sharp relief against a compelling sound scape.

Mark Kilmurry achieved the near impossible by both directing and playing the lead role with a clarity and insight that made this Hamlet feel as if you were hearing it for the first time.

His tour de force was supported by a strong cast including Daniel Mitchell as Polonius and an unforgettable Grave digger. Daniel was last at Riverside in Visiting Mr Green playing opposite his father Warren Mitchell, Toni Scanlan was a strong and sympathetic Gertrude well matched by Patrick Dickson, one of the stars of Sea Change, as Claudius and the Ghost, Ben Ager played Horatio, John Trutwin doubled as Laertes and Guildenstern and Gina Zoia as Ophelia and Rosencrantz.

This was a very physical Hamlet played at high energy levels with a sword fight so brilliantly staged that the audience was on the edge of their seats to the very end. Hamlet was produced in conjunction with Mark Kilmurry’s Studio Company,renowned for a sparse and distinctive style of theatre so acclaimed in his very successful productions of Mercy Thieves and The Dumb Waiter seen earlier this year. Also an accomplished playwright, Mark’s production of Hammerkalvier written for Susie Linderman, toured to Paris and London.

He will present his one man show Will The Real James Dean Please Stand Up off Broadway next year. Riverside is planning to premiere in 2005, Mark’s play Arthur & Amy, based on the lives of English actors Arthur Dacre and Amy Rozelle who toured Australia in the late 18th century with dramatic results.This was also the first Riverside co-production to be created specifically for our subscription season and we intend for many more of the same high calibre to follow.

Hamlet will return to Riverside in 2006 followed by a regional tour. We can’t do better than quote Diana Simmons once more, “This is a Hamlet to savour and see again (when you can).”What’s on?For further details call
