Excerpt from Far Quests

From the vaults of death like a chilling breath Over eternity.

It calls me and ever calls me! And vainly I reply, Fools only ride where the ways divide What Is from the Whence and Why! I'm lifted into the saddle Of thoughts too strong to tame And down the deeps and over the steeps I find ever the Same.

Excerpt from Far Quests

The Mystic

There is a quest that calls me,
In nights when I am lone,
The need to ride where the ways divide
The Known from the Unknown.
I mount what thought is near me
And soon I reach the place,
The tenuous rim where the Seen grown dim
And the Sightless hides its face.

I have ridden the wind,
I have ridden the sea,
I have ridden the moon and stars.
I have set my feet in the stirrup seat
Of a comet coursing Mars.
