wheat!
well i happened to look at the television last night, it was completely by accident...anyway-to the point. i caught sight of a movie preview for a film called 300. this film is about the Battle of Thermopylae and follows the struggles of the lowly 300 spartans-i haven't seen it yet, but this is what i got from the trailer. the point is, in the trailer there were many images flashed quickly past the screen that included a women, the mother, and her child, the maiden, in a field of brightly lit wheat grain. then i recalled the film 'the gladiator' and it struck me that the gladiator's memories of his wife and child are always set in a brightly lit field of grain-well needless to say...i put the two together and dememter just popped her grainly little head right into mine...all that is past emcompasses the present-well even though the films are sent in antient greece, they aren't about demeter, yet she somehow is all tied up within them and now within me. perhaps ill watch the film 300, although most likely not, as i'm not the biggest fan of extreme violence. okay that's all
