Favorite Quote:
Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible. ~T.E. Lawrence

Spiny mountains
And deep ravines
Crossed by twisting, thorny vines
High crags supported by weakening, crumbling bones
Perilous precipices topped by bird’s nests
Jagged peaks pushing against the filmy skin of the sky
That’s where you are.
