I’ve heard it said that humanity is destined for Homo Deus- little Gods with Endless life. So many retreat in horror- “I would never” they say. “What of overpopulation” another. But in me, a wild longing beats like an ancient memory of drums. But not to escape death. What I want is time. For things […]

Love in Multitude.
Is love a solitary thing, singled into some reclusive being? Is it narrow, proud, like a rare dusty stream? Many would say that indeed it’s so.
