Feel free to message me about any questions or special requests, I would love to hear from you!
This visual work also relates in some way with the contents of a poem written around the same time (a little bit prior to the drawing) , titled "Union is Ultimate Truth":
Something
has to give
you back to yourself
alone and only
alone and lonely here
Remotely clear you hear the call of tongues
the fall of songs
eerie, familiar…
But when down shore
they worship the profane
how can you find the way back
upstream with no luck
no row, no boat
you float
adrift beyond the shores that bore you
that still adore you
You wouldn’t know
the call beyond this wall of beating crashing waves upon your memory
upon your fires now quenched
abandoned sails with wails of anguished hope you roll
Down with the currents and out beyond all that you once knew
to bury yourself in the horizon
to find out what’s true
to find out that you knew
all along
But couldn’t hear it bubble up from within with all those voices without
drowning it out of your mouth
and out of your eyes back into your throat back into your imagined skies at night.
And you’ll grow old and you’ll find
In the dark night of your Soul when you were drifting and blind
The stars shone brighter above than any Sun of Morning.
Until the moment comes when yearning lands, upon the one
In your eyes brighter than the others…
And right before the coming dawn
You are found:
Immersed in Sound
And released…into Bliss
Suspended in the Borderline of Light and Darkness… where union is ultimate Truth.
