Written 1/31/2008

what it means when life is so busy that it feels like the only time you "see" each other is via the internet.

she looks at me through a screen
beauty's face in a box
framed secrets behind
hypnotizing eyes
pulling me in
like some blue universe
in the infinite sky
urging me to climb
the stairway to heaven
marked steps in reasons
beyond my control
following the star
claiming to be a wise man
but a servant all the same
to the sight of her glory.

retrograde heart
riding a comet
a stardust trail
writing across the sky
to her with love
reaching into what can't be seen
feeling what can be seen
all over me
a scent perforating
every pore
freeing feet from gravity.

as i ascend into glory
nothing matters
nothing holds me down
for in streams
flowing in the artificial
 
light of night or day

i fly

i fly

to her.

Sion Alone by Sion Liscannor

‘I have to go back soon,’ says Adam one afternoon. Yes, I know he has to go back soon. He has to go back to London and to his job and his apprenticeship. He has taken the maximum number of days leave – he has taken his entire Summer holiday in the Sp

Another Way of Being by Sion Liscannor

A (shockingly) truthful autobiography with elements of fantasy, philosophy, and historical fiction.
