This poem belongs in the pantheon of great works of literature. It is one of the most vivid encapsulations of the nature of our fleeting existence and ihe underlying struggle between mundanity and transcendence.
“I call it burning through rock - you gotta take the long way around to get the desired reality.” This is exactly how it feels live as an artist, and indeed to live with some sense of freedom today.

"a portal of fire conjoined with the lightning-field of mystery" - poetry as trance-state, simultaneous process.
