these shadows on the moon
cast a face of yours in pale
throwing stars numbered
sharp, cutting and fallen
will we remain the unforgiven?
in one year or three
we will see if you walk
down south lane dreams
see if knots truly bind or
if unkindly ones give tell
the ocean's scent carries
even here

Breathtaking.
Thank you, much appreciated! 🙏
Nice one, Michael. I especially like ‘south lane dreams’ and then I wonder what is it in our human makeup that makes that good and right. It’s more primal than knowledge, it has to do with the sun and the earth🫶
Nothing to do with the work, but it’s four clicks from Jetpack. So WordPress is definitely f-ing with us. Or their programmers just haven’t caught up. Whatever the reason, that’s a place AI should and could help. Getting me to what I want the way I want it. We’ll see how it goes, and how much we’ll have to pay for it.
And yet I’m drawn north… But yes, chances are we of northern climes look more to the south for relief from the brutalities of winter. It is, after all, where the sun goes during the dark months and she is gone longer the further north we dare tread.
