Desire- Our Flag Means Death Episode 4 "Discomfort in a Married State"

This week we consider, what do you do when you desire something? How do Taylor Swift, Eminem, and Shakespeare help us better understand what it means to desire the thing you never knew you always wanted? 

 

For our sacred reading practice we gather the following quotes from the episode (also known as "sparklets") and place them together to create new meaning. 

 

"My dream is wrong.

All we have is this one life, we have to try don't we?

I have one gun and one knife, just like everyone else.

I suppose I do work for Blackbeard. 

What is even happening right now?"

 

"Frankfurters.

We need to be a lighthouse. 

All their blood is going to be on your hands, it's going to be your fault.

Peasants marry for love. Mary has acreage. 

You wanna do something weird?"

 

 

Next time we will discuss episode 5 through the theme of "strength."
