Conjurings of melodic noises and dark deep tones for the shadows and ghosts to dance to. Croaks and groans, rattles and drones.
Rituals to conjure a whispering leviathan
” it is vain to dream of a wilderness distant from ourselves…it is the bog in our brains and bowels, the primitive in us, that inspires that dream”
Henry Thoreau
” One human life is deeper than the ocean. strange fishes and sea monsters and mighty plants live in the bed rock of our spirits” Ben Okri
“The Microcosm little World Man containeth all the
outward great world can”
John Pordage
” there was earth inside them/and they dug”
Celan
“Gatherings of things:
Steel meets wood meets rope meets soil meets rain
Meets heat meets hands meets ground meets stone
Meets sound meets breath meets chalk… Roger Bloomfield
“we remain
we sit in the rubble you and I
rain weary
a little charred at the edges
picking stones from beneath the skin
listening to the seas in the blood
the wind behind the ears
watching the stars in our eyes
lost in the woods of the brain”
Tim Hill
