Saturn Cycles

(Click to see full size with greater detail)

I did promise to start serialising my new book - but a bit delayed, here is a piece from a previous work - Filigree and Fire.
The Audio features a reading by me - as opposed to an automated voiceover.

Saturn Cycles
Saturn’s cycle reaches its peak
Stirs complacency, shakes inertia
Machines throw thoughts across the sea
Cortisol codes ride binary blinks.

Saturn’s cycle reaches its start,
A quiet voice echo’s its question,
To split reality from suggestion.
Is absolution found in art?
