from Jesse’s Café Américain:

“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!

The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!

Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun

The frumious Bandersnatch!”

Lewis Carroll

“Grigory Yefimovich Rasputin—

spiritual advisor to the Romanovs.

In 1916, at a dinner in his honor,

he was poisoned, shot stabbed,

clubbed, drowned, and castrated.”


Hellboy, 2003

“A shudder in the loins engenders there

The broken wall, the burning roof and tower

And Agamemnon dead.

Being so caught up,

So mastered by the brute blood of the air,

Did she put on his knowledge with his power.”

W. B. Yeats
