Believe IV

It is almost dark as I make my way to the pond's edge. Have others seen her, my mermaid, Sybylla? I cannot know as I hide the knowledge of her existance from others. Perhaps from myself as well.

This odd veiled mermaid is my psychopomp. She ferrys me back and forth between this world and non-ordinary reality.

Today is J.S. Bach's birthday. Bach's music transports, too.

At the water's edge I ask, "Alexa, play J.S. Bach."

The sublime music plays for a moment and then she jumps in an arc, her face unveiled, her hair shimmering with phosphorescent plankton,
and returns in a silent dive to the depths of the pond.

Does a psychopomp have a psychopomp?


Pholarchos Tarot--Trail of Coral--In water you will be led to explorations of the depths, love, and beauty.
