About<br />
The Unadulterated Dreamscape<br />
A Bricoleur committed to bringing together disparate pieces<br />
to create a whole - in search of balance, temporality and<br />
imperfection. A Sculptor of Space in search of a hidden<br />
dimension - the ephemeral realm - in search of light, respite<br />
and reflection. A Storyteller engaged in creating new<br />
narratives for the internal and external world.<br />
New altars<br />
Form<br />
With indestructible beauty<br />
New trails are<br />
Carved<br />
by mischievous feet<br />
The waves hypnotize<br />
In order to empty<br />
An already too<br />
Cluttered soul<br />
The holes in<br />
The rocks speak of<br />
A different clock<br />
Etched by a time<br />
Buried in the sky<br />
How many horizons<br />
Can we count?<br />
There are no mushrooms<br />
here<br />
Thoughts fold within thoughts<br />
Worlds collapse within worlds<br />
Dreams fly<br />
Like pterodactyls<br />
Perched on prehistoric trees<br />
I can still hear her voice<br />
I can still hear his voice<br />
The heat emanating from his<br />
Body<br />
The restitching begins<br />
A call to<br />
Service<br />
Devotion<br />
What was so<br />
Crisp<br />
Now a receding dream<br />
The shattering<br />
The burying<br />
The splashing<br />
The ocean spits at me<br />
The crab hides<br />
The walrus lies<br />
The ink runs<br />
The water races to<br />
Erase the words<br />
To blot out my existence<br />
I reach and sit in silence<br />
Trying to hold<br />
The laughs<br />
The smiles<br />
The gestures<br />
But it slips<br />
Like water through fingers<br />
How do you bury something<br />
Already too deep to find?"
