I think my brain might be leaking...

I've started my university course.

I'm currently wading through a chapter of a book which details the various stages and processes you go through for studying the arts.

It's just devoted an entire paragraph to the Freudian implications of stricking a match...

*grins* I think that might just be you; on the other hand, I've spent several go-rounds doing lit-crit on this particular poem (I did it way back when for English lit and I'm now re-doing it for this course) so I've got a pretty darned defined idea of what everything symbolises - and I first did it before I understood the concept of Freud.

You know, you're going to have me wondering about that now...

*giggles*

And its made all the more distubring by the fact that, in the poem, it's supposed to be dead people talking....
