Hey Robert, I just finished reading your short story Apologia in The Museum of Horrors book and wow what great piece of work that was. There was a bit of language in it I didn't understand. The part where you said Peter had it right: "Denn alles Fleisch, es ist wie Gras, und alle Herrlichkeit des Menschen wie des Grases Blumen, Das Gras ist verdorret und die Blume abgefallen." Could you maybe translate that for me. It's been quite sometime since I've been to church but I did get the gist of the story and found so well done. Have you thought about having this somehow put into graphic novel form maybe? I definitely think that would be interesting. Well again great story and I will be on the look out for more of your work. |

Hey there, Steven! The quote is from Brahm's German Requiem, which I had the good fortune to sing with the Sacramento Symphony Chorus. One website offers this translation: For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away. 1 Peter 1:24 Graphic novel? Great idea! Any graphic novel folks out there, give me a buzz! Thanks for dropping by, Steven. |
