Lusting Mythos Arcadia

In Greece, on the central plateau of the Peloponnesus, the ancient district of Arcadia was isolated from the coast, surrounded on all sides by high mountains.The plateau is also subdivided by smaller ranges.


The Arcadian Shepherds Nicolas Poussin .


Et in Arcadia Ego Nicolas Poussin .

The Arcadians lived simple lives, untouched by the progress that marked the rest of Greece.


Arcadia dyptych John McMenemy .

The name Arcadia thus came to be a symbol of ideal simplicity, rural beauty, and contentment.


Et in Arcadia Ego Giovanni Francesco Barbieri .

It was represented as a kind of paradise in Greek and Roman poetry and Renaissance romances. Encyclopaedia Britannica .

Lusting Pronunciation

We're all familiar with the old standard,

"you say tomato, I say tomahto".
Watch Astaire and Rogers sing it here .

Today's post is similar, "you say cos'mus', I say cosm'oh'".

The cos'mus'


The cosm'oh'

Lusting All That Glitters...

...is not gold, is a popular saying.

Although this is certainly true for most, I don't believe that it

applies to the glittering architectural creations of alchemist

Frank O. Gehry .

Lusting Classical Evolution

I happened across Ricardo Cinalli on one of my many trips through artistic cyberspace.


He at first appears merely to be a classically trained artist,


with reference to classical figures,


and theme.


But then he moves further toward the contemporary,


using contemporary materials and imaginative portraiture.

Lusting Powerful Images

DEMF by Tom Thewes

The creation of high energy art is the norm,

rather than the exception for Deviant artist derLarm .


A visual cacophony,

Of man and machine.


The battle is waged,

Finite creator vs timeless machine.


Forged metal vs honed intellect,

With no victor, no conquered.


Just humanity struggling,

Fulfilling mans' dreams.


A visual cacophony,

Of man and machine.

Lusting Kisses

You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by



And when two lovers woo
They still say, I love you
On this you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by


Moonlight and love songs
Never out of date
Hearts full of passion
Jealousy and hate
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
On this you can deny



It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by


Moonlight and love songs
Never out of date
Hearts full of passion
Jealousy and hate
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
On this you can deny

You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by

Lusting Self_Protection

Self_Protection,a wonderfully imaginative painting, is by artist Maia Stefana Oprea.

The verse below, I composed, to illustrate its affect on me.


Seeking asylum,

From a cold world,

We hide our true selves,

Protecting ourselves.



Layering one shell,

Upon another shell,

Sheltering ourselves,

One after another.


Until our true selves,

Become indiscernible,

From the shells,

Providing shelter.

Lusting Antinous

Antinous by Alan Seeger


Stretched on a sunny bank he lay at rest,

Ferns at his elbow, lilies round his knees,


With sweet flesh patterned where the cool turf pressed,

Flowerlike crept o'er with emerald aphides.

Single he couched there, to his circling flocks

Piping at times some happy shepherd's tune,


Nude, with the warm wind in his golden locks,

And arched with the blue Asian afternoon.

Past him, gorse-purpled, to the distant coast

Rolled the clear foothills. There his white-walled town,


There, a blue band, the placid Euxine lay.

Beyond, on fields of azure light embossed

He watched from noon till dewy eve came down

The summer clouds pile up and fade away.

Lusting Daily Deviation

I was recently honored with a Daily Deviation

for my ceramic relief sculpture, Seated Youth, that I had

posted in my gallery at Deviant Art .


I am most grateful to the thousand plus members who viewed my

Daily Deviation and to the hundreds that messaged me, added it

to their collections, and visited my gallery.

Lusting Bold Strokes

The art of Ethan Maxx is just that, BOLD.


His quick, strong strokes create masculine images,


That burst with color to challenge our eyes.

Lusting Poetry

When I first visited =MackTheDeuce at Deviant Art, I discovered a beautiful poem that he had written.

That discovery, Becoming Magnolia, is posted today in hopes that springtime won't be too far away.


Becoming Magnolia


A thin rain has fallen
And the poised Magnolia
Drops her pearl-fuchsia petals
In a stream of swelling bounty
To the anticipating peat below her.

The petals taste the drops
Of dew upon the greening grass
Until they have tasted their own rarities.

They sing back to the Magnolia
Like a choir of pillow-stuffed clouds
With the silky, humid air wrapped
Around a tale and a tune.

Lusting Kittens

Some of us are "cat people" and some are "dog people", to this I can attest.

But we all love the kitties,


All fresh and fluffy too,


With so many adventures that lie ahead of MEW.

These lovely kitten photos are from a wonderful site called Daily Pets.

Lusting Savy Posing

Photographer John Hough always finds



An interesting way,


To pose,


muscular physiques.



You may remember his work from my November 22, 2008 entry Manful Form .

Lusting Vintage Rose

What’s in a name?


that which we call a rose


By any other name would smell as sweet;


William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

Romeo and Juliet--Act II. Scene II--CAPULET’S Orchard
Rose, Pink Promise from Jackson&Perkins.
