@gastarbajterica “Twenty-One Love Poems” is such an amazing sequence! We discussed the passage with the dog in my seminar on Rich in Spring 2021 (all on Zoom then …).

Here are two posts of mine about other moments in the sequence:

“Giving up is for rookies.” - Philoctetes #GivingUpIsForRookies #Hercules #Philoctetes #CountdownToDisneyland #Quote #QuoteOfTheDay

A couple of days ago one of my patrons asked for #disneyhercules #philoctetes #desperatetopee , and today finally felt inspired to do it, alors voilà ! ^^
I'm glad for the suggestion cos I really like this character because despite of his flaws, he's got a big heart and a fatherly side.
When Herc was a looser and nobody liked him, it was Phil who was there for him, loving him giving him advise and guiding him to the god path. And for that he won my heart!
