SANG Solomon to Sheba,
And kissed her dusky face,
"All day long from mid-day
We have talked in the one place,
All day long from shadowless noon
We have gone round and round
In the narrow theme of love
Like a old horse in a pound.-
To Solomon sang Sheba,
Plated on his knees,
"If you had broached a matter
That might the learned please,
You had before the sun had thrown
Our shadows on the ground
Discovered that my thoughts, not it,
Are but a narrow pound.'
Said Solomon to Sheba,
And kissed her Arab eyes,
"There's not a man or woman
Born under the skies
Dare match in learning with us two,
And all day long we have found
There's not a thing but love can make
The world a narrow pound.'

The sun was high over the low, khaki colored plains of southern Nevada. It's harsh, yellow light seemed to rip through the atmosphere and bake the barren land below. The thermometer read 108 degrees.
The old, leathery skin didn't even notice.
The foul odor of petroleum oil seemed to perpetually hang in the dense, humid air. The stench was so thick that it often drove the weary travelers, those desperate enough to stop here for fuel, to cover their mouths with rags or loose clothing as they pumped the precious, overpriced liquid into their dust covered vehicles.
The old, whiskery nose didn't smell a thing.
The wooden arcs creaked in rhythm with his slow movements. The small, orange flame of his long cigarette raced ever closer with each drawn out pull.


I know it's not great but does it get the point across? does it give you a picture?

Any good fictions about teenagers?
The only good teenage book I read was youth in revolt. It doesn't have to be centered around love or chasing woman, can be about anything.

Hey /lit/,

Are there any books out there with stories revolving around imperial civilizations or empires or anything like that? I'm open to fantasy, historical, and science fiction.

R-Robert Cormier thread?!

Definitely top-tier YA suspense/thriller anyone can enjoy. I personally liked The Bumblebee Flies Anyway most, After The First Death is also intense as fuck.

This is the same guy who wrote The Chocolate War, which I also enjoyed, but the movie version of it was surprisingly decent, and I also recommend that to anyone who read the book.

Hello /lit/erates.

I just want to ask why Svidrigailov in Crime and punishment killed himself?
Perhaps I am too much of a peasant to understand his deep reasoning , but it seems that he was just a whiny little bitch because Avdotya didn't want to blow him?
Is this correct? if not, why did he do it?

Pic related, I do like what i'm reading.

My mother has gotten an offer to sell her homemade honey in bookstores.
What kind of person are you and do you use honey? If yes, what is important in your choice in books, women, and honey? (or just honey)
