Shards of Memory - detail, cover
Shards of memory glint in moonlight
labor distills the incandesence
And who remembers and who forgets
​and who is the one who wonders why?

The Dervish Dances

Picture
The Dervish Dances - leather, rust etching, ink 68 x 6.75

​Shards of memory glint in moonlight
labor distills the incandesence
And who remembers and who forgets
​and who is the one who wonders why?
Again and Again I return with a brand new sense of wonder
and the Gods laugh
gain and again I return to the mythic dream center where memory lingers along paths undiscovered into a landscape of yearning the dervish dances.

Book of Love & Longing

Book of Love & Longing - rust, leather, ink, charcoal 8 x 52


​Again and Again
I return to the places
where light splinters thoughts and words
disappear into innocent whispers
the world is made whole again
in the faces of love and longing

​And still the Gods laugh

​​Again and again I return to the mythic
dream center where light splinters
thoughts and words disappear into
innocent whispers. The world
is made whole again in
the space of
