An excerpt from my new book "Chaos Charms". Waiting for the proof to be returned from the printers - on sale soon, fingers crossed! The new Consciousness finds itself trapped in these strange new machines of blood and bone - vehicles with desires of their own.... Other parts of the story are available - https://www.graememcallister.com/t/chaos-charms Our Lights Became And so our lights became liquid, Caged within bone vehicles. Eternal indolence to ego, to id. Tingling nerves, chaining manacles. Ignorant eyes, innocent hands Feed and thicken flitting lights. Wilful shells with strange demands Mask the stars with soil's delights.
Happy Tomes Tuesday
I've been hard at work on a new book - Chaos Charms. It's a book of poetic art chronicling the creation of universe and consciousness, through to language and civilisation to the ultimate transcendence of the soul. Hoping for a June release - I'm serialising parts of the book in the meantime. I'm really excited about this one and I'd appreciate any feedback.
Other serial writers here on Substack are listed below. Take a look and see what stories are being weaved by these teller of tales:
