I have walked through many lives,some of them my own,and I am not who I was,though some principle of being abides, from which I struggle not to stray.When I look behind,as I am compelled to look before I can gather strength to proceed on my journey,I see the milestones dwindling toward the horizon and the slow fires trailing from the abandoned camp-sites,over which scavenger angels wheel on heavy wings.Oh, I have made myself a tribe out of my true affections,and my tribe is scattered!How shall the heart be reconciledt o its feast of losses?In a rising wind the manic dust of my friends,those who fell along the way,bitterly stings my face.Yet I turn, I turn,exulting somewhat,with my will intact to go wherever I need to go,and every stone on the road precious to me. In my darkest night,when the moon was covered and I roamed through wreckage,a nimbus-clouded voice directed me:"Live in the layers,not on the litter."Though I lack the artto decipher it,no doubt the next chapterin my book of transformationsis already written.I am not done with my changes.
