A Sea of Words
Introduction I am currently reading “Queen of The Swords” the second of the “Swords of Corum” books that I wrote about in the article below) by Micael Moorcock, and came across one of the obstacles that the protagonists have to overcome, the Lake of Voices. Every drop of water in the lake is a tormented human soul and as they row across the lake the souls cry out in anguish, driving the rowers mad. The spirit of the lake tells them to join the souls in the lake and their anguish will be soothed but they reach the other side and this results in the human souls being freed from the evil spirit of the lake.

Michael Jackson's Dangerous Album | 31 Years Later
It is now more than ten years since Michael Jackson passed away. His music remains popular, but the man is as controversial as ever. When it comes to expressing opinions on this icon, people generally take sides by either viewing him as a lasting musical genius or a monster whose life became such a mess in the final years of his existence that he will forever be categorised as a statistical oddity who happened to be exceptionally talented. There seems to be a perpetual obsession to find the "truth" about Michael Jackson whatever that means in 2022 and beyond.

F8%k Nice
Whew, chile**, this new Meg album, Traumazine*, is one that I was NOT expecting, but I am so glad I listened. This album is the volcanic-field-slapping paradise of my dreams, and from someone who’s never been a big fan of modern hip-hop, I can say that I was converted after listening to this record.

It's Time to Open the Gates and Say Goodbye to the Keepers
It's time to open the gates and forget the idea that 'gatekeeping' as we know it today. Although art is subjective, it is there for all to interpret. How one perceives and consumes art is all based on interpretation. I like things others don't, and vice versa, but I will not tell that person they are wrong in doing so, or that they didn't understand it right because we have different perspectives; different interpretations. This is why we relate to different characters, and see ourselves in others, while others we do not. Art is there for a reaction, a reply, an effect. It is for conversations, some controversial, are taboo and perhaps necessary, while others are plain, simple and maybe a little bit dull. Art may carry meaning, but sometimes it may not. It is all dependent on you, the receiver.
