Regarding Marriage: Whose Idea Was This?


Regarding marriage: Whose idea was this?
Isn't each poor shimmering star alone?
Can a nimble munchkin alter at the altar
His/her belief that his/her soul is his/her own?
Is a former frog to die in bit and halter,
Ever disenchanted with a kiss?

A star spins slowly through a field of bliss,
No motion save what does all motion alter,
Dependent on the love of every stone.

Just so are we the music of a psalter
Unknowing, moved by melodies we miss.
Didn't the maid move blindly towards that kiss?
Yet happily they wed, as is well known.

I'm glad you've finally srttaed to get some answers to those million questions you had (and hoping that you'll share some with me lol). I think it will be really interesting for you to write out his story. He's pretty twisted, and there must be a lot of unusual events in his past for him to have turned out the way he has and to make him want to create Delaney and her sisters. Even if you never end up turning these into a novel, you're going to have a pretty unqiue set of short stories when you're done.
