So, today is the last day of April - the Poetry Month. Which I have totally neglected to mention so far. I just wasn't in the mood for poetry, I guess - until I saw a gorgeous Aragorn manip made by [profile] akashaelfwitch as a "poetry prompt" at the Adult_Viggo Yahoo!Group. It stole my breath away, and ispired me to put into words what I believe an intimate companion of this glorious specimen of mankind might be thinking while watching him take his rest...

Your Theme Song is Beautiful Day by U2

"Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away"

You see the beauty in life, especially in ordinary everyday moments.
And if you're feeling down, even that seems a little beautiful too.


Surprisingly accurate, that one. Even if the beauty is all in my head... LOL.

And this weekend it definitely was (must be the gloomiest weather since February - thick, dark clouds and epic gusts of wind lashing buckets of water around in all directions... *shudder*). I spent most of it reading The Legend of Jua-Simba by Bailey - one of those absolute gems that I somehow missed when it was first written (which is no surprise, Bailey being one of the most prolific authors in ANY fandom she decides to join, and one who only reccently started posting her fics on LJ). Ohhh the delight. Mmmmm... I have no words for the thrills that savage!Viggo seducing proper Victorian gentleman!Orlando gave me.;P I must have some serious kink for this kind of AU... or maybe it's just Bailey - because I seem to develop a serious kink for anything she writes about, somehow.;) That woman messes up with my head big time, let me tell ya.:D She can set her story anywhere, anytime, invent the most outrageous plotline - and it always works. Her fics just stay firmly planted in my memory, no matter how long ago I read them - like the one where Viggo was a porn star... (I don't recall the title anymore, but I know it was hers - and OMG was it hot!...) Or the Elizabethan theatre one for the Just Words zine. And her recent stuff - like the LOTR AU The Vigil - is just as amazing. And she writes great Brokeback Mountain fanfic too. Just... give me anything, as long as it's signed by her name, and I'm happy. I fear my life will be too short to read all she's ever written - but I'm definitely going to give it a try...;D
