Dancer at the End of Time

I dance the dance of infinite space.

I dance the timeless dance of eternal being.

I dance the world into existence.

And then dance the world away.

Destroyer of worlds

Destroyer of worlds

Music is my muse, and rhythm is my rhyme.

And the bliss of joyful action is all.

In the words of my secret pre-birth namesake (David Bowie): Lets Dance!

My Friend Bee

What a joy it is to have friends! I have friend, her name is Beatrix, and she is a lady of great wisdom and much renown. I have known her all my life, but seldom do I have the pleasure of her company for great expanses of the Earth stretch between our dwellings. This weekend past the magic box on wheels took me to the edge of the universe where the land ends in a huge bathtub of salty water. And lo, there I beheld my friend Bee!

Our reunion was ecstatic as we rushed to embrace. We played in the sand and danced in the sea until exhaustion drove us to seek shelter. Once inside my friend shared her toys with me, and I shared mine with her. The exchange was one of mutual satisfaction.

I give you planet Earth

But alas, all things must pass, and so our all too brief sojourn in the lands of amicable solidarity was soon ended.

I will find you again, Beatrix, on this you can depend!

Like the grains of sand on the beach of my mind . . .

Such are the dreams of the contemplative soul . . .

Staring to infinity

Staring to infinity

I stand at the junction betwixt water, earth, and sky. Here I stand and stake my claim on this new land. I count the grains of sand one at a time and come to know the meaning of infinity.

The quintillions quintillion

The quintillion's quintillion

My senses are washed in the spray of the sea and the breath of the sky. I taste the grit of the sands, and all is in balance.

The taste of adventure

The immensity of the world echoes around me as I stretch my mind to meet the limits of imagination.

Deep thoughts for a baby.
