Ever Onward


“No beast so fierce but knows some touch of pity. But I know none, and therefore am no beast.” - William Shakespeare

Furious waves against the shore -
The winter sets in

&

From then on

It’s

War -

As the molecular vibrations
Face

Isolation
In

Ice -

Breaking away
In

Existential
Fury -

Mounting
The
Resistance

To

Existence ordained
By

Hive mind
Of hibernation

Sleep -
As watcher watches, too cold to
Weep -

Sworn
To be a structure of storm

Ever Onward
Into

The storm.

I like looking at nature photographs.

This one is from: Leland, Michigan.

This place is listed as one of areas
where the stars are most brilliant in appearance.

There is an island there... Where you can rent cabins.

I am going to go there sometime
and maybe eat some shrizooms with some fine craft smoke.

:)))

Maybe bring a telescope.

:)))

But yes...

I was just thinking of how the winter
seeks to freeze the big lake and how the waves fight ferocious/relentless...

And the fury of the energy...

And I thought of a being, standing upon this...

Seeing themselves mirrored in the vision like scenery.
