Descriptions
The Beguiling of Merlin (by Clifton Snider)
(after a painting by Edward Burne-Jones)
Bare-footed, she slithers above him,
his book of magic held like a platter,
a phallic body, feline fingers,
phallic nose, feminine lips,
her neck an enormous temptation,
snakes on her head, her dress a swirl--
blue-green skin, sadistic red hair:
she's the one for him.
Gray-haired Merlin has lost his beard,
sick with disappointment: gaunt, weak
tomcat eyes, a young man's fingers,
he wants her to want him again.
She took his wisdom & will--
excitement in the forest,
the overwhelming white flowers.
The hawthorn tree envelops him.
Mask:
Peter appears to be in his late 40's or early 50's. The man tends to wear dark colors and speak softly, except when angered. Patient and aloof, there is a wealth of wisdom in his dark eyes.

Quotes
"Wise advisor, honest, and blunt when he needs to be. The edge of his words is softened by knowing he's right and even when you don't like that, you must respect it. I miss being near enough to him to call upon him more." Edria Meredith
