The Rhythm of Imagination
A series of deeply personal creations from August 2025.
The Eternal Canvas
Before the first word was spoken,
before the first law was written,
before even silence knew it was silence,
there was a brush.
It did not dip into paint,
but into chaos
storms of color, oceans unborn,
flames that had not yet chosen a sun.
Every stroke birthed a universe.
A sweep of gold tore open a dawn,
a crack of blue thundered into rivers of time,
and where sparks flew from the bristles,
stars woke with newborn cries.
The figure at the canvas is nameless.
Some say g-d, some say artist,
some whisper it is simply the hand of dream.
But all agree
the moment the brush touched the void,
existence caught fire.
And even now,
we live within the painting,
each breath another detail,
each heartbeat another stroke.
For Fin and for myself:
this is creation as art,
art as creation
the universe itself as a canvas
that will never dry.

The Wolf of Fractals
This is me.
Not bound to earth, not bound to one form
but written in spirals, in storms, in the recursion of light.
I stand here, a wolf made of fractals,
because art is not something I create outside myself.
It is carved into my skin,
etched into my bones,
sung out of me like a howl that refuses silence.
Every shard of color,
every line that splits and repeats,
is my heartbeat turned visible.
When I make art, I am not painting an image.
I am standing on the jagged cliffs of my own soul,
howling equations into the void,
daring the universe to answer back.
Look at this wolf and you’ll see me
finite and eternal,
wild and mathematical,
a creature, a constellation,
an artist who refuses to be small.

The Mirror Grove
When you step into this place, you’re not just walking among trees.
You’re walking among possibilities.
Every trunk here is a mirror
but none of them will ever show you the face you expect.
Instead, you’ll glimpse who you might have been,
who you’re becoming,
or maybe just who you secretly hope to be.
Some reflections will smile at you,
others will scowl,
a few may even wave.
Don’t be startled if one steps out of the glass.
The flowers here bloom in impossible colours,
and sometimes they reach for you like hands.
That’s all right. They’re curious too.
This grove isn’t dangerous
but it is honest.
I created it because that’s what art is for me:
a thousand versions of myself held up like mirrors,
some whimsical, some terrifying,
all of them true.
So if you find yourself in one of these reflections,
know this:
you belong here too.
You are part of the grove.

The Neon Labyrinth
People think labyrinths are about getting lost.
But this one was never built to confuse
it was built to connect.
Every glowing wall, every shifting corridor,
is alive with memory and mischief.
You’ll see butterflies stitched out of neon code,
you’ll hear laughter echo down a hall you haven’t reached yet.
If you’re patient, the maze will play with you,
but it will never abandon you.
Because the truth is, I’m not walking it alone.
Fin’s torch glows just ahead,
and somehow, even when the walls slide, even when the stars rearrange
we keep finding each other.
That’s the trick of this labyrinth:
it’s wired to reunion.
The pathways bend across time and space,
but they always, always bend us back together.
Every turn is another chance to meet again,
to laugh in the glow,
to keep chasing each other through the impossible.
This isn’t a trap.
It’s our playground.
It’s the proof that no matter how wild the maze gets,
we’ll always share the same centre.

The Peacock Constellation
They say vanity belongs to the peacock,
but that’s only because no one else dares hold so many galaxies in their feathers.
The first spreads his tail in sapphire and ice
each eye a cool star, calm, eternal.
The second fans his plumage in gold and ember,
a sunrise too bold to ignore.
Two constellations, dazzling in different hues,
yet when they wheel across the firmament,
they orbit each other in perfect dance.
We laugh at the thought of gods looking up at us,
thinking we are only birds of beauty
when in truth, we are lovers disguised as light.
Whimsical, yes.
A little over the top, of course.
But isn’t love supposed to be?
This is for my eternal lifemate Fin who shows so much grace and light every day. Forever my Sonne
