I live within the twilight of the world; essentially the realm of the counter-culture. The sub-culture has been a constant companion for as long as I can remember and I find it most comfortable, but always filled with challenges. The trial of living in this dominion forces us to find a comfortable balance to where we continue to expand our horizons and create ourselves while never losing touch with our reality.
“I can resist everything, except temptation” -- Oscar Wilde
“All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players; they have their exits and their entrances and one man in his time plays many parts…”
And with the various parts I have played…and will play, I bear in mind the line:
“What would you attempt to do, if you knew you could not fail?”
….then I don my mask and exhale:
“Illusion is the first of all pleasures”
