“Ebb and Flow by Stewart Stafford Happiness, briefest harbour in a squall; Tempests funnel us to splintered docks, High-seas missions to a last port of call, Fading feast taste of a haven of stasis. Weather springs with raging misprision, All things far beyond fingertip calculation, If we go off course with Fool's Gold vision, The reefs of avarice shall starkly claim us. We set sail or are torn from fragile sanctuary, All these stays, noted in the strangers' ledger, The Fate Morgana's captain - marine actuary, Virtual kin crew with fish and fowl companions. © 2025, Stewart Stafford.

“In the yells of excitement I ride into the unknown fearlessly through the glen But i can't shake off the feeling that I am being gazed down In an open assessment A swiftness shifts the air And I hear a sharp cry As shadow of a vast hawk Sweeps across the valley My eyes rove the sky And pulling the reins i follow it in its flight As it circle and dove I outstretch my arm To have it take its place And with a single beat of its fierce wings It descended with grace Its talons grip my wrist And the hawk met my eyes Unblinking and ancient And my eyes travel To a rolled parchment That’s tied on its legs With a shimmering thread Recognising the unmistakable seal I unravel the message, Its a call from the guardians And I am invited, to attend my fate.”

“I don't know what I believe anymore. If God does exist, then He's just an asshole, creating this world full of human suffering and letting all these terrible things happen to good people, and sitting there and doing nothing about it. At June's memorial service, a few people came up to me and said some really stupid things, like how everything happens for a reason, and God never gives us more than we can handle. All I could think was, does that mean if I was a weaker person, this never would've happened? Am I seriously supposed to buy that June's death was part of some stupid divine plan? I don't believe that. I can't. It just doesn't make sense.”
