I know why you’ve come.
You want me to tell you stories of dragons I have chased, armor that men wear, castles where we have dwelt. But you must understand time. Time begs no forgivenesses, gives no excuses, won’t be broken. Though the mystics tell me it bends. So be time for me. Just for a minute. A s t r e t c h e d out second. Remember the dream of the blue speckled lizards and find your place in the dry river bed of time. Don’t try to understand the movement of water — it keeps its secrets inside of stones. Its poetry is there for you to read. But only the lizards know why. And something inside them longs to breathe fire into your settled soul.
