Speak To Me

Speak to me

you legends

you heroes

let me hear

your wise words

teach me again

how to live

with honour

and wisdom

recognising the shadow

and embracing

never denying

bury me in the earth

so that I may grow

Speak To Me

Thoughts

Thinking about ancient archetypes today. How we tell and retell the same stories to a new audience. It’s interesting how my original story idea has been shifting and morphing into something else. Maybe that is always the way. The original idea is not the best, it is only a starting point.

I bet David has seen some stuff over the years.
