the orgiastic future
November 24, 2011
“Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgiastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that’s no matter - tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther … And one fine morning -
So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”

The word is "orgastic" .... and that's a whole different word! But, great piece!

Beautiful. I love The Great Batsby. You have done a great job. The unique brushstroke you used gives the piece a very impressionistic feel. It's incredible.
