You pulled me in with the picture of Dream. Your poem made it well worth while. Thank you!

Thank you!

I know the poem is more about Orpheus and than Morpheus, but, well, Dream sure is a tragic figure. Dramatically so. He just cut a more striking figure and I've already used up most of my relevant renaissance era pictures relating to Orpheus and Persephone :D

Though it certainly fits Morpheus's nature, and I could see his stint with the fairy he invited in before he sent her as well, which was relevant to his end in The Kindly Ones later on, how he looks on their liveliness from his gloomy castle.
