Taking a cue from Ovid,
"My intention is to tell of bodies changed
To different forms..."
Each image reveals to me a personality
 with linguistic intention.
They are Storytellers re-scripting
Story that has altered our consciousness,
 and thus reality.
A good storyteller can hold a vibration
for their audience equal to experience.
Experiences shape knowledge
 and thus actuality.
As Alchemists they seek the recipe to heal
The Emotional Plague;
 (one entity with tendencies to exist.)
My muses wish to offer
New Geographies of Hope.
Their reflections can be read
 as meditation on transformation,

 succinct poetic narrative,
 or as fairy tale.
They have been heard
Sometimes Singing
Lullabies to the unconscious.
 their lyrics giving council
or perhaps
 opening the imagination
 like that of a child,
 a space where possibilities are infinite
 and reality is what one imagines.
