on the last day
At homo sacer is est, quem populus iudicavit ob maleficium; neque fas est eum immolario, sed qui occidit, parricidi non domnature... Pompeius Festus, �De verborum significatione� I think I just got broken up with by way of a weblog entry. I�m not sure. Parts of it seem to be about me. Other parts seem...fictional? About someone else? I don�t know. But I do know this: I am no one other than the man you met a year ago. I am no more or less imperfect now than then. I never knew how inadequate that was before now. And you and I each seem less happy with every passing day. I have never been so in love and so miserable all at once, not fit for divine sacrifice, nor exempt from oecumenical condemnation. Ex quo quivis homo malus atque improbus sacer appellari solet.
