Happy Birthday, John Milton

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , , , , , on December 9, 2013| 3 Comments »

“The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven…”

John Milton, Paradise Lost.

He was born on this day in 1608. Possibly England’s greatest poet. He also fought against censorship. He would be disappointed to discover that censorship yet lives. Instead of Mr. Milton (he died before photography), I offer you a photo of a much lesser poet- me.
