Summary
Anticipation is a lovely word. Say it. Anticipation. In the right mouth, the word hangs on the lips. Rolls around the tongue. Caresses the lips that says the word. Suspension, expectation, desire.
Orpheus had anticipation for his wedding and for his bride Euridice. Now there is a word. Euridice. She of the black ringlet hair and flashing eyes. In Orpheus' mouth, her name was a paean, an ode, an epiphany of joy. But then Orpheus was a singer, a poet, a tenor with a very broad range.
