"Brave Heart" O what Leonine love could sway iron clad heart to move closer reflection watches stealth like under cover kneads softly some kind need from altered genuflection wrong gone right an eye remains genuine to see evermore clearly the truth of light words from lips kiss the realm of silent victory softly velvet pawed bereft of a harsh world conquering Boadicea’s dark cold cemeteries and bleeding hearts' world to claim as own territory imprinting what beauty remains it waits fierce inside unseen, unwanted the whisperer now calls in hunter to a shining warmer climb raising the stakes higher ermine royal of such a small kingdom yet so large inside folds into the arms of sleep that seems wanting of a thousand years wanting to return to life the girl awakes the woman moves storms calms juvenile earthquakes childish trepidation becomes ancient tired paradigm, no need to perpetuate wrong side’s spite both eyes watch one alike inside both contain the phantom might velvet soft Lionheart truth sees the seer sees it all as it truly is light moves evermore closer in steadfast hears her call treading carefully where once fools rushed in the kitty holds it all directs direct thought winner holds the bird over all Braveheart and She, Joker his new claimed world love moves strangely towards love no fear no fear at all (LadyLabyrinth / 2022) Into the Light / Siouxsie and The Banshees, https://youtu.be/pictArFbX_A “Wrong will be right, when Aslan comes in sight, At the sound of his roar, sorrows will be no more, When he bares his teeth, winter meets its death, And when he shakes his mane, we shall have spring again.” C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe “I was the lion who forced you to join with Aravis. I was the cat who comforted you among the houses of the dead. I was the lion who drove the jackals from you while you slept. I was the lion who gave the horses the new strength of fear for the last mill so that you should reach King Lune in time. And I was the lion you do not remember who pushed the boat in which you lay, a child near death, so that it came to shore where a man sat, wakeful at midnight, to receive you.” C.S. Lewis “I have come,” said a deep voice behind them. They turned and saw the Lion himself, so bright and real and strong that everything else began at once to look pale and shadowy compared with him.” C.S. Lewis Easter Egg - https://youtu.be/KGsXo65mwBI LYRICS/ "Into the Light", Siouxie and the Banshees https://genius.com/Siouxsie-and-the-banshees-into-the-light-lyrics 500/Joker/no-trumps https://www.pagat.com/euchre/500.html#oz4hand

Stream of consciousness, how yours flows!~~~~~ my mind races inside my skull, at times no more words, scattered thoughts, how dull. Words that build, words that destroy and words that we should never deploy. ~~~~ A collection of bands interacting with each other to find a sound. Siouxsie spawned the sound, gave me goosebumps! ~~ Joie de vivre ~~

“Soon, however, she began to reason with herself, and try to be feeling less. Eight years, almost eight years had passed, since all had been given up. How absurd to be resuming the agitation which such an interval had banished into distance and indistinctness! What might not eight years do?

Events of every description, changes, alienations, removals,--all, all must be comprised in it; and oblivion of the past--how natural, how certain too! It included nearly a third part of her own life. Alas! with all her reasonings, she found, that to retentive feelings eight years may be little more than nothing.”
