"Play me a sonnet from your vocal symphony. I'm eager for it, I prefer your sound over any violin. The tone and pitch are simple, an effect is not. Thank the gods for that skin vibration in my rattled pick-up sticks. You wistful sigh, and my marbles go flying across the carpet. Not without purpose"

The Tower and the Fox, by Tim Susman

"Through the gate of speculative dimensions live the old ones of hidden myth. Beings that make ancient seem a silly child. An eye blinking could dissolve worlds to vapor. They are mentioned in the scribbling of madness in torn journals and forbidden tomes. I know their names. If only I could forget"

"Dear one, needy can be many things. You'll see it on film, in poems, scattered in books. Not as raw as you or as open as me. Today, you asked for this. So for us, it is this quiet space and concrete floor. The blossoms on your flesh are well-earned and precious. We go deeper still."
