DARK INKANTATIONS [HEMISPHERE TWENTY TWO]


HEMISPHERE TWENTY TWO: FALLING INTO FLYING

“I think I dreamed you into life” – Savage Garden


(ROBERT’S ROOM)


Down the steps, into a large, strobe lit room, with the sliding door of a walk out basement, Robert reaches his subterranean lair.

A motion sensor activates ambient sounds and mist, filtering into the flickering strobe light.

Through a doorway, his room is cool to the surface of the skin, a chamber.

In the corner of the room, a sphere circulates waves and waveforms in tentacles of electricity.

On the wall, over an occult bookcase, is a word, written in blood:

FEAR.

His moniker.

Robert removes a kaki jacket, with many pockets, followed by a hoodie and a long sleeve, button up shirt, putting them all on hangars, which sway, accentuating the parchment in the jacket pocket.

* *   *

Fingertips, through cut up, black gloves.

A poem and a seal.

A signature, in a script, having the elaborate nature of a labyrinth:

Cipher_O.

Robert falls into the waves of his waterbed, a ship with a parchment sail.
