flemmings, I now have the new Melissa Scott, Point of Knives, and am unlikely to be able to leave it without also rereading Point of Hopes and Point of Dreams.
What a nice way to spend a long weekend.

To the Reader
As you read, a white bear leisurely
pees, dyeing the snow
saffron,
and as you read, many gods
lie among lianas: eyes of obsidian
are watching the generations of leaves,
and as you read
the sea is turning its dark pages,
turning
its dark pages.
