There is a brief interval...
...precisely when one of the ocean's waves has risen up and has begun to crest...
...where the nymph spirit of that water comes into contact with the sylph spirit of the wind...
...as that breeze is blowing the billowing clouds along their course...
...and at that moment...
...the two spirits are blessed with the bliss of a kiss~

---This short-length story is about an underlying unity which is easily forgotten amid the strife of life. But considerate contemplation of the water-cycle can help serve as a reminder that our seemingly-separate containers are part of a bigger container that connects us all.
---This image was inspired by observing a family-member's pet-cat grooming herself.
---The Scorpion Flower is a carnivorous plant from an alternate future that shall thankfully never come to pass. This clever botanical lifeform lures insects to its petals by dripping “nectar venom” from the “stinger petal” arched over the flower. Then, when a curious arthropod investigates the source of the scent… the Scorpion Flower strikes with its “stinger-petal”! Injected with a paralyzing toxin, the plant’s prey falls into the pool of “nectar venom” that collects between the petals. Dissolved by the fluid, the prey is digested by The Scorpion Flower and leaves no trace to forewarn other unsuspecting bugs!

---This short-length story is about a single-cell that becomes self-aware of humanity’s mistreatment of the planetary-body and incites a rebellion-faction within one’s own body… as a spreading cancer to either change the external individual’s ways… or bring the human down entirely!

“Dear Future-Friend.
May the way be open and truer treasures uncovered. Please remember that the pearl is in the lotus. The lotus is in the heart. The heart is in the cage. The cage is opened with wisdom. And Wisdom is already within.
I hope to hear from you soon!”

Rakas tulevaisuuden ystävä.
Voi tie olla avoin ja totuudenmukaisemmat aarteet paljastettu. Muista, että helmi on lootossa. Lootus on sydämessä. Sydän on häkissä. Häkki avataan viisaudella. Ja viisaus on jo sisällä.
Toivon kuulevani sinusta pian!

Dragi bodoči prijatelj.
Naj bodo pot odprte in odkrite resnične zaklade. Ne pozabite, da je biser v lotosu. Lotos je v srcu. Srce je v kletki. Kletka se odpre z modrostjo. In Modrost je že znotraj.
Upam da se kmalu slišiva!

Querido futuro amigo.
Que el camino se abra y se descubran tesoros más verdaderos. Por favor recuerda que la perla está en el loto. El loto está en el corazón. El corazón está en la jaula. La jaula se abre con sabiduría. Y la sabiduría ya está dentro.
¡Espero oír de usted pronto!

Bạn thân tương lai.
Có thể con đường được mở và kho báu được khám phá. Xin nhớ rằng ngọc trai là trong hoa sen. Hoa sen ở trong tim. Trái tim nằm trong lồng. Chiếc lồng được mở ra với sự khôn ngoan. Và Trí tuệ đã ở bên trong.
Tôi mong sẽ nhận được hồi âm của bạn sớm!

Kjære fremtidsvenn.
Måtte veien være åpen og sannere skatter blir avdekket. Husk at perlen er i lotus. Lotus er i hjertet. Hjertet er i buret. Buret åpnes med visdom. Og visdom er allerede innenfor.
Jeg håper å høre fra deg snart!

Sahabat Masa Depan yang terhormat.

Saya berharap untuk mendengar dari Anda segera!

Drogi przyjacielu przyszłości.
Niech droga będzie otwarta, a prawdziwe skarby odkryte. Proszę pamiętać, że perła jest w lotosie. Lotos jest w sercu. Serce jest w klatce. Klatka jest otwierana z mądrością. A mądrość jest już w środku.
Mam nadzieję, że wkrótce się odezwiesz!

Language is alive.
In the same way that singular-cells compose the internal-organs, which then compose the external-body...
...letters compose the words, which then compose the sentences, which then compose the paragraphs, which then compose the book.
This extends infinitesimally small and infinitely large.
From microscopic to macroscopic.
Likely looping back around again at any "end".
And on every level, the "pieces" are just as alive as the "whole".
So one must exercise caution when making use of these living-letters, lest these creatures skitter right off the page!

---This track was created in FL Studio (on July 26th, 2019) by tweaking & slowing down a fragment of the song "A longing to ancient times PART 1" from the "Phantasy Star Online EPISODE 1&2 Original Soundtrack~Songs of RAGOL Odyssey~", which was composed by Hideaki Kobayashi & Fumie Kumatani. Combined with a slowed-down fragment of the song “Narrow Path”, which was composed by the band Amorphis.
