“Las Vegas has become a child's picture-book dream of a city -- here a storybook castle, there a sphinx-flanked black pyramid beaming white light into the darkness as a landing beam for UFOs, and everywhere neon oracles and twisting screens predict happiness and good fortune, announce singers and comedians and magicians in residence or on their way, and the lights always flash and beckon and call.” WayChildrenBookDreamLightBlackWhiteCitiesDarknessFortuneScreensSingersComedianFlashMagicianCastlesGood FortuneVegasLas VegasUfoPyramidsBeamLandingPicture BooksOraclesNeonResidenceWhite LightSphinx Book:American Gods Source: American Gods
“The beauty that men seek is half a dream-- Where'er we wander, yet it lies afar; It touches with its wand a setting star, It stirs the ripple of an ebbing stream. And though we run beyond the dawning gleam, Or kneel to worship at an altar bright, We may not know the soul of its delight, Or more than marvel at its palest beam.” KnowsMenMaySoulDreamRunningLyingStarsHalfBeautyWorshipDelightSettingSettingsWanderStreamsAltarsBeamRippleGleamAfarWands Book:The Rainbow Chaser: And Other Poems ...
