“From the east pillar, Zima continued the Plath poem, something about an ‘applicant’ and a female ‘image.’ But the fervor of the poem spawned a thing strange and frightening––a phantasmagoric manifestation! I confess, even as a poet, (and perhaps I am but a neophyte) my words are but meager for flaming the imagination required to see––in the mind’s eye––what menaced us from the hills above! It was not a human form that appeared, nothing like––not even a memory of––but rather, it was an amorphous cloud that at first danced and swirled, but at length rounded into a spheroid of darkening rainbows interrupted by ribbons of midnight and speckled with whirling stars––as if the firmament had been summoned, formed into, and then overcast––by what, I insist, is unexplainable. But now this “image” rolled downward with a weight and momentum inexorable. --From Moon and Stone Stories, (The Poetry War).”
― T.F. Long, Moon and Stone: Stories, Poems, Chants, Songs

“Within this little volume find––not a vast sea of words––but only a moonlit stream of story, poetry, chant, and song.”
― T.F. Long, Moon and Stone: Stories, Poems, Chants, Songs

“The writer asks himself, would A really cause B and not C, etc, and he creates what seems , at least by the test of his own imagination and experience of the world an inevitable development of story. Inevitability does not depend, of course, on realism. Some or all characters may be fabulous––dragons, griffins, Achilles' talking horses––but once a character is established for a creature, the creature must act in accord with it.”
― John Gardner, On Morale Fiction
