The world was a drum of dark water where we sometimes caught our wings 
like moths and fluttered until we freed ourselves and dried our wings 
and set off for other lights more real than this reflection. Other 
times, of course, we stuck there, adhered to mystery and illusion, 
unable to move. Sometimes we died there, wings crucified by reflected 
light.
Michael Joyce
