the Glacier of Time

November 22nd 2008 11:29
That night I stayed in the house, surrounded by indications of love, echoes of laughter and the distant thunder of hooves. Unused to the open hearth of affection, my heart was slow to thaw, frozen by the relentless glacier of time. Was this really the Lovetrucker’s destination and resting place?

The light of day brushed each object with gold, tossing truth about like seed. The behemoth mountains lay in wait for the twist and turns of life’s tiny dramas, casting their sombre visage over the stone stage. More horses had gathered, as if declaring their interest in the ongoing riddle of these sphinxes. The inquisitive equine of yesterday regarded me with a baleful eye, softly morphing into a creature of its own dreams.

I could see the entrance to tunnels gouged into the granite of the great guardians, surely where the strange men-children went. These hills must be honeycombed with the memories of miners’ lives and deaths, imprinted in the tombs of rock. The mystery of all things lay around like precious metal for the taking, shining through the paucity of our dim existence.
