*************************

The Magickal Planet is a landscape of words as well as of pictures and sound. It has no boundaries and no password or key is required to enter. We used to think it was imagination that allowed us in but now we know that it is only openness and a willingness to be enchanted that is necessary to float through the air lock portal. Once arriving, rhythm, shamanistic ecstacy and energistic intuition keeps us present.

Sound in this sky-land-water-fire-scape is rhythm, melody, vibration. Vibrational energy assumes color, color assumes form, is animated, then disappears, moving beyond signal reception.

This Magickal Planet is identifiable from where we stand but rarely do we name it. Truly Trans Form-ative, we must allow a shift in reality to actually replace our current state of conditioned, crystallized perception thus Trans Porting us to Portal Entrance, World Expansion.

Immortality

Someday, no doubt, I shall die: but I and I alone will determine when. My work draws me forward, year after year, decade after decade.....I seem to know that so long as I am caught up in my work, I will not die; I am immortal.

The world is emptied now of all apparitions.

No presence directs me away from my truest self. Moment, by moment, heartbeat by heartbeat I live out the drama of my own life. Is this another masquerade? I grasp my brush, I plunge forward. Where I once questioned everything, I now question nothing. I am supremely myself: the only immortality allotted to mankind.
