Excerpt: The travels of Sir John Mandeville.
…In that country be many griffins, more plenty than in any other country. Some men say that they have the body upward as an eagle and beneath as a lion; and truly they say sooth, that they be of that shape. But one griffin hath the body more great and is more strong than eight lions, of such lions as be on this half, and more great and stronger than an hundred eagles such as we have amongst us. For one griffin there will bear, flying to his nest, a great horse, if he may find him at the point, or two oxen yoked together as they go at the plough. For he hath his talons so long and so large and great upon his feet, as though they were horns of great oxen or of bugles or of kine, so that men make cups of them to drink of. And of their ribs and of the pens of their wings, men make bows, full strong, to shoot with arrows and quarrels….
I’d Say: Oh To Me.

spread from the divine nature of his elongated wings.
Lifting the sun for the sky.
One would breathe upon me
hoisted span sailing mate for lifetime.

Verner Panton - Panton Chair - Origin 1960. I first saw this chair years ago in a redesign/ installation image from St Barts cathedral, Eastern Bohemia. The aisle with two rows of white Pantons, three deep. The visual; futuristic seating in a 13th century structure. It raised a few eyebrows, but the designer statement remained—through integration and unexpected combination of intelligent elements, they have added a new dimension to the baroque interior.
