Testament
I arrived during the time of the Blue Galactic Storm, taking this specific form so that I could find You. I knew that You would always recognize me since I have never been other than You, though I appear … Continue reading
Slightly Out of Tune
The dusk sky does not complain when the evening stars come out, nor is the silence which prevails between the realms of day and night an indication of some absence. Ours is not a light that briefly shines, only to … Continue reading

Metaphors for life are bountiful – perhaps this one will still serve well: we seem born into a prison, each awakens in a cell. Every cell is different, but all share a certain something – for one thing, they’re all … Continue reading
I Go to You
A mighty majesty is bearing us, singing us through the dreamtime. It has no mind for our inevitable failure, our failure to love beyond the dream. What it sees tonight is this: under the compelling influence of that filmy facsimile … Continue reading
