Happy Halloween!
Tonight is the night when all souls leap from the shadows Behind frosted glass and wicked arches they hide They leap they scurry they fly upon the dark winds of the night. And tonight clouds reign above the orange yellow sun And everything turns murky as little faces peer through the looking glass And into…
Read MoreFriday
It’s the day where I’m thinking back on my visit to the city which I took Thursday night, and I can see the whole weekend stretching ahead of me with open arms. Here’s a toast to infinity. A toast to weekends. And a toast to precious, dreamless waking! For the weekends are my infinity… And…

So I went online (the mother load of true knowledge- forget the Library of Alexandria) and saw everything from para psychologists to reincarnation. Who knows?…
