Gather The Night

"A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world."  --Oscar Wilde, 1888

Repeat as mantra.  Hear it again, and again, internally, and feel the words wrap like a spell.  See the font as wafting smoke.  Feel the phrase as descending atmosphere, a night curtain drawing down, a reversal of nature.

A path carved by light.  A path in reference to what it is not.  A path in relief.

& then wide-eyed.  Awake, while those around you sleep.  Filled with such sheer glory, such sweet light.  Watching the pace of illumination spread, race, gather the night.
