The Three Kongs
We are Kongs, said the creature from the depths of its armchair, which looked more and more like a gimbled travelling couch, and what we do is seek a star that has been foretold. When we reached the bakery wherein the star was predicted to rise in the yeast, we knocked upon the door. WhoContinueContinue reading “The Three Kongs”
The Tree of Serpents
The light from the fire grew bright as the sun in some seconds, sending rays into the corners of the room and casting black shadows elsewhere.

The Tale of the White Stone
I am so sorry, said the person who entered, The door provided less resistance than I had imagined. She turned and closed the door softly.

The Mouse and the Sock
The Blue Knight returned to the City of Az laden with revelation. He went to the great hall where a fire had also been laid, where he yearned to be welcomed with honour amongst those people. My truth, he cried, is ‘I Do Not Know, so I must Dance’ Well, the people of Az cameContinueContinue reading “The Mouse and the Sock”
Level Seven – OK lets go
So, eventually, the Man who lived in the Cave came down the mountain once more and knocked on the great doors of the hall wherein the Queen sat, feeling low. Let me in, called the Caveman, I have wonders to relate. Go away, said the Queen, I understand now that I cannot know the greatContinueContinue reading “Level Seven – OK lets go”
Level Six – I Don’t Know
The Caveman sat in his Cave dressed in clothes of coarse cloth and contemplated the paucity of his understanding, I do not know, he thought to himself.

She contemplated her inability to discover the truths withContinueContinue reading “Level Six – I Don’t Know”
