People looking for the magic of elves if they look into themselves, it doesn't matter where it is the question is what appears. People looking for salvation most likely find condemnation. From the mother's womb is birth hearths fill with mirth, but deeper discoveries do abound... in the darkest spaces where there's no sound. Buried alive and preserved to stay the lonely explorer is held at bay. Do you dare to exhume what is secretly perfumed? No signs of being of put under where gods wrath would hit like thunder... from the labour carrying blocks in the name of Kephren all flocked. If you try to fill your purse as with the mummy, there follows a curse. |

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Martin, it seems when someone spends so much time trying to unravel or discover something, the search just basically leaves many off the edge of the Earth, and when you finally claim you have found that amethyst cave, you just go in further because you are curious what is there beyond the darkness and you just seem to get lost! (sad sigh) Why bother trying to search for something when you can just believe in it, I always wonder "Ain't that good enough?", and then if you discover it's not there, then that only discourages you more than ever before! This is excellent, sweet friend, you have my vote, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martin, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

ecrivan, another well done history lesson that leads us to Q's about the future of mankind, as projected through the acts of an individual's quest ** Buried alive and preserved to stay the lonely explorer is held at bay. Do you dare to exhume what is secretly perfumed? * |

Midnite, I like how you captured my mind frame as I posted this..and that is so..the "western" quest to 'discover' or re-earth what had already been discovered and laid to rest is usually a prelude to our stirring into other cultures which have had their own seal on life....this parallels the western zeal to dominate whole cultures and "call it" their own with a total disrespect for the rightful authors. |

Serenity, You can count on further visual image/startling poetic statement trends on my part. Thanks for your vote. |

Ethyl, There's no sign yet that I'll resort just to common romantic themes. Thanks. |
