Oneiros Way

François Villon and Bulat Okudzhava came to me so unexpectedly, first while watching a documentary about Wilhelm Reich and then again through Regina Spektor. They arrived the way certain artists do, quietly but at just the right moment.

Artistry often reaches us when we need it most and in dark times it becomes something to hold on to when nothing else seems to mean anything anymore.

A song can be a prayer and a prayer can be an admission of how small we are and how much time we still are given before our worlds stop turning.
