Courtly Love

A dragonfly of summer:

Beautiful, fleeting,

predatory?

Then fall came.

José Soromenho-Ramos: The albatross (the largest of sea birds, family Diomedeidae - the companions of Diomedes) belongs to the endless horizons, the trade winds and the waves of the open blue sea. In the days preceding the discovery of the world, they were called "birds without feet", those living in the clouds. They were part of the ancient mythologies, the imaginary creatures of unknown lands and seas. (Albatross, from portuguese alcatraz, from arabic al-ghattas, sea eagle).
