Aw Horatio, my dearest friend Rapt within the prose of bemused romanticism How your innocence shines
With virtue and pure intent, transcend The mediocrity of ignorance by way of inexperience As you weave between the lines
It is no more than “fear” intends To bind and gag the enlightened masses With apathetic vines
So true it is, this message sends Perchance to warn of the ease of arrogance That mans esteem, inclines
Horatio, my Horatio. Upon your goodness I depend While the fallen, flail and flounder You hold in honour, Gods designs
For you, with pure heart, I defend My sword and shield at your disposal As there is more than ‘life’ defines
Beneath the heavens, portals rend What light thru yonder window breaks? Ti’s more that my heart sadly pines
Is it the East that spills a bloody trend? Oh Horatio, Horatio..let not thy innocence be taken Know ye, this, that there is more amid well crafted lines

This combined narrative dialogue and play is about the uncreated, unborn and undying transcendent Self of God-consciousness and Buddha-nature. It describes an odyssey of transcendent Consciousness Awakening and Remembrance.
This book presents a narrative story of one person's journey of transcendental Awakening and Enlightenment as guided by his two Sage companions. It is grounded in Zen Buddhist and Taoist perspective and uses the I Ching as its structural framework. T
Well done, Krissy
