"There are roads that make you feel the longer you stay on them, the less certain they'll lead to your destination."

Just Because We're Scared Doesn't Mean We're Wrong.

"H. P. L.

Outside the time-dimension, and outside
The ever-changing spheres and shifting spaces -
Though the mad planet and its wrangling races
This moment be destroyed - he shall abide
And on immortal quests and errands ride
In cryptic service to the kings of Pnath,
Herald or spy, on the many-spangled path
With gulfs below, with muffled gods for guide.

Some echo of his voice, some vanished word
Follows the light with equal speed, and spans
The star-set limits of the universe,
Returning and returning, to be heard
When all the present worlds and spheres disperse,
In other Spicas, other Aldebarans."

--Clark Ashton Smith at The Eldritch Dark

"I cherish returning to the work of June Jordan & Diane di Prima & Muriel Rukeyser & others, who embodied the commitments they wrote about."
