prophet one dewey morning i awoke and through blurred eyes witnessed a saintess, clad in earthen robes humming tones of honeyed sorrow she beckoned me forth unto her pasture and i marched, a cry on my lips and all the while visions of ink clouded my mind light draws ever nearer soothing, and stilling my tainted heart and with a gasp, bursts through illuminating her unfathomable flowing robes. she bears witness to my outstretched grasp “i see a black despair in your eyes, traveler” “yet they are hollow, with tears run dry” “will you not rest your soul by my fire?”
