I will stomp on the surface of this world...I will dance with giants and shake the mountains until they are dust in the palm of my hand...I continue to float in a confined space, moving but remaining within the walls of chance and circumstance...From a solitary position I can examine the sky and believe that of this legends are constructed...I must remember the grey days, the motivating rains that carried me away into the dreams of distant moons and startled sunsets...The essential smile, the tears falling from the hostile stratosphere and landing in lakes, only to become placid and forgettable...I continue to journey, to search for definitions long lost by my mother-tongue...It is within this land of the sun that my mind begins to vibrate and at last: Hope...Here, I can accelerate my whispers into the shouts of satisfaction, the scintillating creation of a silent afternoon...The stillness of sudden memory...
