Lightning in a Bottle

Great art is all about feel. Capturing lightning in a bottle. It’s not about perfection, trying to satiate an audience, but getting it right for yourself. And when you do, the whole world resonates.

Dreams

“The best thing about dreams is that fleeting moment, when you are between asleep and awake, when you don’t know the difference between reality and fantasy, when for just that one moment you feel with your entire soul that the dream is reality, and it really happened.”

His unquenchable thirst for life, Eager and strong, vital With limbs that obeyed his thoughts Now only give way to persuasion and effort. When food was luscious Now without taste, a cardboard shell.
