OLDE I - MURDERESS
Olde I is a whimsical contrast between a melancholic history and tides that ride our lives. A representation of the echoing screams of our collective murdered peace.
Excerpt from ‘The Murderess’ (1887)
by Alice Cary
"Why covers she her mournful eyes?
Why do her pulses cease,
As if she saw before her rise
The ghost of murdered Peace?
From out her path the ground-bird drifts
With wildly startled calls,
The moonlight snake its white fold lifts
From where her shadow falls."
Why do her pulses cease,
As if she saw before her rise
The ghost of murdered Peace?
From out her path the ground-bird drifts
With wildly startled calls,
The moonlight snake its white fold lifts
From where her shadow falls."
