Themes for December

[livejournal.com profile] team7 invited me to compose a set of themes for December, and here they are:

December 2005, for [livejournal.com profile] 31_days


December 01: E come vivo?*

December 02: Their days are like grass

December 03: A delicate child of life

December 04: Like seven stone statues

December 05: The boy born with no father

December 06: At the very hub of systems

December 07: You're the swingingest thing

December 08: Imaginary ordinary

December 09: Perché un di m'hai sorriso*

December 10: The most ill-regulated memory

December 11: The sound of droned sea song

December 12: A drop of lantern oil

December 13: Of unkissed kisses

December 14: Enchantment passing through

December 15: Its breath kindles coals

December 16: This is how we walk on the moon

December 17: Meine Tochter nimmermehr*

December 18: Art is far feebler than Necessity

December 19: The anatomy of a Minotaur

December 20: Scylla and Charybdis

December 21: This place that was no place

December 22: Like yellow parchment is his skin

December 23: What's the use of feet

December 24: Seule en ce lieu sauvage*

December 25: The tale is the map that is the territory

December 26: When I walk crazy, I walk right

December 27: Three darts of mistletoe

December 28: Furnished with the dusty wind

December 29: Here they sang about tomorrow

December 30: Your lips are like a crimson thread

December 31: Time travel is lonely


I think I compiled the list a bit too mechanically, but I hope the themes are worth writing for. ^_^
