ruby i want to know abt the Arthurian references in kingfisher by joanna newsom!!! can you tell me anything abt it!!!

hello!! how are you?

okay so! the short answer is no and that i dont see any, but heres a much longer answer where i try to not say that!

ive tried to listen to joanna but havent been able to get into her stuff so i looked up the lyrics. it looks like a couple people have tied it to the fisher king. i struggle to care about the grail cycle besides the general decline that precipitated it. arthur and his knights have gone on amazing quests and thats a huge part of their myth, but theyve gone on so many quests that england is running out of them. the knights dont know what to do with themselves. everyone has realized that this era wont go on forever. arthur decides to send knights after the holy grail (the “this is my blood” cup from the last supper) to tie his kingdom in with christian morality (you can see why im not wild over it). 

anyway the fisher king is a wounded king that cant stand so he fishes. iconic. hes guarding the grail. theres also fun little magic games like he will be healed if someone just asks the right question. now if youre not me, this is where your favorite arthurian trio comes in: percival, galahad and bors. the grail quest doesnt always have to have the fisher king (i dont think hes in the last crusade lol), but it usually has percival (like hes the original grail knight. arthur doesnt send everyone after the grail, not even himself, becuase you have to be pure enough. purity as a virtue is weird, but being worthy isnt, so yeah). galahad seems more popular these days though.

i always think of culhwch and olwen when i think of this, and i cant remember why, but im p sure theres a reason. ive forgotten so much about this kind of thing. maybe because arthur sends knights with a specific goal instead of them having personal reasons and just running off.

so theres a king who cant do what hes sposed to do, which is already enough of a story, and then you add the grail (you can always add shit you want to arthurian legends). remember the magic thing...it seems like theres celtic roots to this one, even though the christians go wild with it, like not only is the court a bit directionless, it needs an injection of purity or at least holiness. anyway theres so many wild ways of telling this to get what you want out of it. most importantly i guess is that people really wanted relics back then. of course they wanted saint relics, but relics from gospel times were the cream of the crop.

i just realized that i never really told the story, so youre probably confused like okay theres a king and then he has the grail but whats the plot? um dont ask me :) most of the grail cycle stories are incomplete and make you feel the same way. the grail is a bit of an impossible quest...

so in the song specifically: someone lmk if youve read some good grail cycle stuff and see direct comparisons! bc i dont. i mean it IS weird that we were talking about th white and lips earlier. id say the strongest connection you could make is that the song takes place in a wasteland, and the fisher king rules over a wasteland. i would just say that they share wasteland imagery, not something more profound (like the themes of the quest for the grail). there is talk of injury, but it’s in the wrong place (eyes instead of legs).

there are also lots of other theories!! like pompeii and wwii. i like the idea that it’s tied to “halcyon days” that come from greek myths about the bird, when everything has gone wrong in the world of the song.

Children of the 1980s and 1990s

Approximately 15,000 girls born between 1983 and 1994 were injected with a form of mercury and plastic

They have amnesia and always will have a some form of short term and long term.

These are the only ones we have found. So please please understand there is nothing we can do at this time. There's a cure. Called a new body. Not rebirth but a resurrection like a ghost, basically. Removing the soul and escorting it into a new and improved human form. Which they have began on these 15,000. With permission and emails of course

We plan to update all human bodies to a stealth mode at a particular time in the future. Which has not been determined. But they can access these due to the Great Tree. So it's been expidiated to help them.

That said.

There's more out there. They did other shit and did stuff to boys, also. We just hadn't found it.

So please when you're feeling like you're saying shit that You're not... Like you're curious and it feels important but its not important enough...

Just let it go.

Like i wanna know shit but i don't want to fight about it.

But I'm possessed. I've known I have had listeners for a long time, most especially Denise. So i can notice it.

Its from an implantation of amobea. Electricity can kill them. But they will Just come back.

But usually there's a feeling of pressure in the body and it usually makes people feel lazy and also changes moods.

So music helps a lot. Especially if the "lead control" can't hear it like if sharing the same car. So I like to not play music i like around other people. In cars im 'll we will listen to what you do. Plus if i hear a song that played in the car with them, im more likely to remember that person or moment than if wr listened to what i always do.

If it's with some one you hate, put it on a channel no one listens to and you wont listen to with anyone else. Music you hate is good.

That's what i always did when I was a kid.

Otherwise just loudly say "go away" or "please stop" or "I don't feel good" or "this isnt good" or "i think a ghost is here"

And usually they will stop. But if you bitch at them cause i will tell Denise the Hell off. She argues back!! So i have to threaten to tell my Uncle Dad because that's the only thing that stops her. Because he will punish her. She gets giddy over her crimes.

So just try to recognize it. Try to stop it.

Don't blame the possessed person -- Do NOT say you're saying that because you're possessed!.

Mark used to say "you're yelling at your mom not me"

No bitch. I am fucking yelling at you. Because i didn't know he was dead, you know.

No if something comes out of our mouth -- it my been planted there but usually were actually curious or we do actually feel that way.

Now add in the brain issues like me calling A dog a Cat or vice versa. Just overlook it as a brain disorder, like you would dyslexia or another type of issue.

But don't be all you're possessed. Because we aren't stupid. We actually know. That's why we're moody bitches. And we mean what we say all the time.

But if two people have amnesia sometimes you're gonna have to say "you know what? IDK baby let's do something different"

And you will need a tremendously huge amount more rest than the normal person.

So change the subject but acknowledge and communicate why.

Or EAT or Sleep. Eating is huge!!! It makes the brain focus on something other than communication and so it actually cleans up the brain area and allows more space and privacy and good stuff.

Going for a walk is also a good head clearer.

Also allowing more time to communicate.

Realize they may be thinking about how your question is phrased, comparing it to the evil ex or their dad or an old teacher. It may spark a memory or sometimes they don't know the answer on a dime stop. Or in my head I repeat the question exactly the way my kid says it and then i pause and let it sink in then I answer and my kid has said it 3 fucking times. So then I yell and answer.

Which by the way i got a memory -- we used to wrestle in John Force's living room floor -- a whole bunch of us like 13 to 20. Who was all that?!?! I bet i taught yall to fight like a girl!! ;;)

But yeah. Let it be what it is. DNA4U reminds you you should be together as lovers and so that is your goal and it won't change because you refuse to get along or one of you is possessed by an alien something.

Sorry, your heart and soul must be actually evil to get a new soulmate for your current soulmate. So work on giving that love away.
