The Well of Souls*

From the darkness I emerge
Witness to creation
And its heralds celebrating
The Life at hand

2011

Metallic Gel Pen on Illustration Board

*Based on a dream I had around 20 years ago

Here are some poems friends wrote inspiredby the piece:

P39 - The Well

"He lifts another bucket
from his well of souls,
white hands working
as the formless figures
rise once more.

No sweat falls
from his ageless brow,
no breath draws
through his open mouth,
as he pulls
pulls the lives closer
a Master of destiny."

by Zachary Hogan

The Temple

Taking one step into the temple and her eyes travelled up and up. The pillars were topped with the same statue of the Divine, arms open wide.

Her breath stopped. Her heart thundered in her ears, deafening any sounds from the temple.

It was the most beautiful place she had ever seen. The light reflected in through a high window, making everything sparkle.

She gasped suddenly, her body taking over her lungs. The magic flowed through every breath she took. And planted itself in her heart. To be a part of her very existence forever-more.
