I sometimes think of Ennis’ life in the years after he lost Jack as a “time of no reply”;
and perhaps he felt this most acutely in his trailer after the passing of summer;
when another missed November approached …



Summer was gone and the heat died down
And Autumn reached for her golden crown,

I looked behind as I heard a sigh
But this was the time of no reply.



The sun went down and the crowd went home
I was left by the roadside all alone,

I turned to speak as they went by
But this was the time of no reply.



The trees on the hill had nothing to say
They would keep their dreams 'til another day,

So they stood and thought and wondered why
For this was the time of no reply.



The time of no reply is calling me to stay:
There is no 'hello' and no 'goodbye',
To leave there is no way.



Time goes by from year to year
And no one asks why I am standing here,



But I have my answer as I look to the sky:
This is the time of no reply.

from the song "Time of No Reply" by Nick Drake



Brilliance again, Dylan.  And Nick Drake!  I LOVE Nick Drake!  Off to get this song right now.

The book is Ennis; the movie is Jack. 
Jack's death made the story greater; the Academy's tire iron made the movie greater.
Make the pledge! Go Back to Brokeback whenever, however you can. Join the BTB Project!

When I'm going over the prologue for the themes threads, I sometimes get 'Kiss From A Rose' going around in my head..haunting.
CSI - I know exactly what you mean: "But did you know, that when it snows, my eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen."  :) wow!

I sometimes think of Ennis’ life in the years after he lost Jack as a “time of no reply”;

Dylan, you are so cruel and always, ALWAYS, so perfect. Thank you yet again.

Mini: :D thank you for your kind words. I very nearly didn't include the little introduction to my photocap, but just felt I wanted to share why Nick Drake's song has become important to me in the context of BBM. I hope it doesn't come across as too stark ... and I must remember that this is a 'Photocaption FUN' thread after all  ;D So I will try and take heed of these words:

"my cruel weapons have been put on the shelf, come sit down on my knee.
You are dearer to me then myself, as you yourself can see" from 'Workingman's Blues #2' by Bob Dylan  :)

Brilliance again, Dylan.  And Nick Drake!  I LOVE Nick Drake!  Off to get this song right now.

B2B: :) Yes, Nick Drake is awesome, and a continual source of inspiration to me! Happy listening!


*sigh* Now, I'm looking forward to seeing some photocaps that will make me LMAO!  ;D

Thank you in advance friends!  :)

Ennis: “...I’ll try to get something as a Muppet, I guess.”
Jack: “Is that so. You and Elmo, that’s a life?”


Ennis: “...me and Sulu’s getting married.”
Jack: “You know he ain’t queer.”
Ennis: “Oh yes, he is.”

late in the mornin, waves crashin, that same old gray battleship floated in and he saw jack walk down the gangplank,
dark blue cap tilted back. a hot jolt scalded ennis and he was out on the pier pulling his duffel bag behind him. jack
took the walkway two and two. they seized each other by the waists, hugged mightily, squeezin the breath outta
each other, saying moby fuckin dick, moby fuckin dick, and as easily as the right hook catches a big fish, their
mouths came together, and firm, jack's big soft lips bringing blood to ennis's hips, his cap falling to the pier,
stubble rasping, clear slick risin, the door opening and the colonel looking out for a few seconds at ennis's
straining dress uniform and shuttin the door again and still they munched, pressin thigh against scrotum
and palms and nipples together, treading on each other's bell bottoms until they unmeshed enough to
breathe, and jack, not big on hallmark moments, said what he said to senior officers and shipmates,

chicken wing.

lol, no real meaning, just random silliness. KFC is a fast food chain that sells chicken,
and colonel sanders is part of their corporate identity advertising/marketing image. :)

Well, Jimmy, I am American  ;D so I know about KFC (hey, even have it in Europe). I just wondered if "chicken wing" is some gay sailor lingo I didn't know about.  :D

no sailor lingo that i know of, but maybe!

ok, i had "obama" at the door initially (alma, obama), but when i googled his name that KFC logo came up and i thought, why not?  "chicken" is a term sometimes used to describe young men, but i used 'chicken wing' just because it was so random and silly... ;) :D
