Natalie Harp and Abishag the Shunnamite both came into the intimate circle of the aging leader during his steep decline. They were unable to make their kings great again.
I (?)liked the essay today. I sent it to my husband. He enjoys your less esoteric stuff, and this is right up his alley. He’s 95 years old. But in the end, the stories are rather sad for the females. Young and hitting a wall in life like that is profoundly sad. I was very interested in the location of the young virgin’s homelands. Bridging 3 territories. For good or bad. Is that location still in populated?
Great post, and I would probably be laughing if this were all behind us...hopefully it will be soon. Your wit and knowledge are very much appreciated!
