"If anyone is interested the full quote is "Dreaming is the most democratic of religious experiences in the sense of its universal accessibility." Which fits with the author's opinion that religion was brought about through dreams to humanity. I use this as a reply to a reviewer who only used one part of the statement. Reading the full text is important for clarity not cherrypicking." — Oct 12, 2026 05:07PM

“Stationary"
The moon did not become the sun.
It just fell on the desert
in great sheets, reams
of silver handmade by you.
The night is your cottage industry now,
the day is your brisk emporium.
The world is full of paper.
Write to me.”
― The Veiled Suite: The Collected Poems

“My eyes crinkle into crescent moons
and sparkle like the stars.
Gold flecks dance and twirl
while stories whirl
in their oolong pools,
carrying tales of the past
and hope for the future.”

“Cocoon
cocooned in
winter white
I slip beside you
breathe deep
if you listen
you can hear the snow
change
shift slow to spring
poised for melt
cloaked under
white winter
I lie beside you
breathe out
if you listen
you can hear
wet wings unfurl
like petals
ready to be
born”

“My library was -- all libraries are -- a place of ultimate refuge, a wild and sacred space where meanings are manageable precisely because they aren't binding; and where illusion is comfortingly real.”
