"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of the Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way..."

- Charles Dickens, A Tale Of Two Cities

***

  There are no
accidental
meetings between souls.

The moon taught me
there is beauty
in darkness too,
that even when
I don't feel whole,
I am enough.

the moon is drunk
and the stars intoxicated,
with the sins of the sun,
and the sadness of the sky,
shifts, blurs from the earth,
and you stare,
and wonder why the universe
never loved you.

"The code of the con is to know just enough about everything so you can lie about anything." - E. Tancarville
