Last night I was reading an article and I came across the word terrible but my mind registered it as beautiful. The next few sentences stopped making sense so I read back and when I came to the word terrible I remembered thinking the meaning was beautiful but still knowing I had read terrible. If this isn't some form of dyslexia then I'll equate it to my own personal darkness. But at the same time when I look at the word TERRIBLE it's actually a rather nice looking word. I don't mean the meaning; I mean the combination of shapes. It's just pretty. So maybe, just maybe, when I read the word terrible I wasn't replacing the meaning of terrible in my head, I was just appreciating the design of the letters.
Sometimes I just think too much.

Strange leap of thought. Would that be a Terrible Beauty or a Beautiful Terror, I wonder...
