DUST OF SNOW

The way a crow
Shook down on me
The dust of snow
From a hemlock tree
Has given my heart
A change of mood
And saved some part
Of a day I had rued.

- Robert Frost

New York is once again covered..

The poem above was displayed on the 6 train this morning…

I wish I was snow sledding in central park right now..

A while ago I read a book called “the Art of Seduction” by Robert Greene. Today I was reminded of it by a co-worker and thought it would be a perfect theme for the ladies…(men could also enjoy and learn)

Though I doubt that anyone can successfully follow a step by step guide to seduce someone (think Hitch), what I really enjoyed about this book was the historical background it gave;  a  skillful inquiry of some of the greatest seducers (like Cleopatra, Benjamin Disraeli, and JFK) as well as an analysis on various related literature  (Kierkegaard, Ovid, and Freud).

I’d like to share with you the descriptions of seducers Mr. Greene outlined in the book. I’m sure you can relate to one, or maybe you will come across the powers of those who seduced you … Check them after the jump! Read more »
