Welcome to The Paper Kingdom.

Meditation

Too many thoughts. My mind a tangle of footpaths.
Meditation One


I realize I've been clenching my teeth.
I wonder for how long.
Meditation Two


The quiet roar of water.
Meditation Three


I begin to unbraid my memories.
Meditation Four


The wild silence of sunlight.
Meditation Five


Flight is easy, pushing from a solid perch.
Meditation Six


I rise from myself.
Meditation Seven


I am endless, a golem of all things.
Meditation Eight


There's always something blocking the way, holding me back.
Meditation Nine


The sky and I have yet to meet.
Meditation Ten
