I've been meaning to do this for a while, and I FINALLY did..

NEW LAYOUT! [livejournal.com profile] starsouls1013

I needed something season 2 themed, and as soon as I saw the shot of the boys walking down the road I was like THAT'S IT. And it just spiralled from there :)

The images are thanks to the lovely [livejournal.com profile] monkiedude, who kindly put up with my exacting requests and delivered exactly what I needed in hi-res. Textures are from Tre-xtures and [livejournal.com profile] oxoniensis.

That text is something I've had lodged in my brain for a while, and I really wanted to use it... it's from T. S. Eliot's "Preludes," a bleak, stark little poem. This is the first stanza:

The winter evening settles down
With smell of steaks in passageways.
Six o'clock.
The burnt-out ends of smoky days.
And now a gusty shower wraps
The grimy scraps
Of withered leaves about your feet
And newspapers from vacant lots;
The showers beat
On broken blinds and chimney-pots,
And at the corner of the street
A lonely cab-horse steams and stamps.

And then the lighting of the lamps.


I think the line fits the boys perfectly, especially considering... well, if you're caught up you know, and the demon's MO.

I changed my journal title accordingly, and the subtitle is "dry bones can harm no one," which is from Eliot's "Waste Land". I also changed the title of my friends page - it's now "a thousand sordid images" (also from Preludes) which I think suits you dirty lot awfully well ;)

So yes. Let me know what you think! :D

Of course I did! I never use other peoples' headers anymore. That's why I gave credit for the textures and images silly.

Make sure you tell me what you want it to be like - images, size, coloring if you have a preference... etc.
