Wisdoms of G'kar
“A true artist is never appreciated in his own time.” “In here… you cannot hide from yourself. Everything out there has only one purpose; to distract us from ourselves, from what is truly important. There are no distractions in here. You can learn much from silence.” Ambassador G'kar, Babylon 5
truth of who you are
and the answers you need
reveal themselves only in
calm between fears
dryness between tears
in breaths that pierce the silence
providing shelter from life’s entropy
crashing upon our senses
our resilience
like stormy waves
eroding the rock of our strength
and battering our resolve
listen in those moments
for they will provide what you seek
