“Conscience” by kharlamov
it happened in a dream
I became king of the world
but the world didn’t care
so I stepped from the throne
and a monster took my place
then the world was afraid
I painfully pondered
what my conscience commanded
while the whole world suffered
could I kill the monster
without becoming one too
thank God it was a dream

Sometimes everything has to be enscribed across the heavens so you can find the one line already written inside you. Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that small, bright, and indescribable wedge of freedom in your own heart. David Whyte
"drink from the well of your self and begin again" ~charles bukowski
no dust here
Looking ahead, without looking back (too often)
flights of fancy from New Zealand
You're never alone, if you've something to share
All you touch and all you see / is all your life will ever be
