The Weight of Time and Place – Hokus Grey Our past has weight. It’s heavy. Not like a rock we carry around, but dense like a star. Our past has gravity. It doesn’t just pull us backwards. It distorts our view of the present, as well as the future. We get so used … Continue reading ReBlog Wednesday – “The Weight of Time and Place”

Reblog Wednesday – “Asleep on a Train”
What if life is the dream and death is waking, and we just move from dream to dream, life to life, never noticing when we wake up? A person falls asleep on a train. The train keeps moving while they sleep. Eventually, the train reaches its destination, and the person wakes and gets off. … Continue reading Reblog Wednesday – “Asleep on a Train”
Binary Stars
Try as I might, I couldn't pretend passion, or even feign interest. The depths of those old, slow rollers, curling in from far off places, never explaining where they were, where they had been, or where they were going.

Astronauts
When I was young and just begun, I sabotaged my position. I sold the truth and bought a lie, then gave away my alibi. I spoke to God and begged to die. I prayed for chains, then made to fly. I was lost, so high and holy. Deny my love, my one and only. … Continue reading Astronauts
In Time
Does the day begin with the dawn? Is it only the strike of Midnight that heralds time’s next immutable step? For we know that though tomorrow is never promised, it is inevitable. Whether we are present to bear witness to the Sun’s journey through the heavens, it occurs. Archeoastronomy may show this has been … Continue reading In Time
