Summary

The website content recounts a prince's encounter with a princess hidden behind a dragon and reflects on the emotional depth and transformation of their interaction.

Abstract

The narrative titled "The Prince in 75 Words" delves into a prince's unexpected meeting with a princess who remains concealed behind a dragon. The prince expresses a mix of emotions, from the discomfort of proximity to the allure of a deep, meaningful connection. He likens their dynamic to a surface-dwelling duckling and a pearl diver, suggesting a contrast in their natures. Despite the princess's elusive presence, reminiscent of a "delicious girl," she appears unchanged by time, hinting at a timeless bond that transcends physical absence. The prince's reflections convey a sense of overwhelming joy and a whirlwind of feelings, symbolized by the imagery of a dervish. The website also includes links to related articles, "75 Words With a Cormac Chaser" and "Consumer Society," which may provide further context or thematic exploration.

On encountering the Princess behind the dragon

The irritation of closeness chafes you, a little goes a long way, you can sway with me, stay with me, play with me from your signature style a little while. You stay on the surface, a frightened duckling while I dive down into the depths for pearls the joy is unbearable sometimes, curling and swirling unfurling whirling dervish delicious girl behind the dragon has aged not a day since she went away to be better.
