Prague, along with six other european cities, contains within its name the idea of "threshold", or portal, or door to the other side; ask, and you will be given this fact in these words directly, with all their implications, and told further that to posess the names of all seven cities is "dangerous knowledge".
Prague is said to be the most haunted city in Europe.
Kafka walked the streets endlessly, taking in the atmosphere here and expressing his perceptions through the written word. His request that his manuscripts be destroyed after his death ignored, his shade walks yet, if such things are to be believed.

117 Sandusky Street (One More)
Hot colors are running thru your hair
This is the season to take the fall
But when you’re with me
You’re not really there
And there’s no reason
No reason at all
But there’s one thing to remember
Don’t toy with emotion
There’s one thing to remember
She’s one in a million
Look on the surface
It’s so very plain
This is the season to take the fall
Where’s Andy Warhol
When all is in vain
And there’s no reason
No reason at all?
But there’s one thing to remember
Don’t toy with emotion
There’s one thing to remember
She’s one in a million
One more
To forget.
See her reflection linger like a whisper
Long after memories are past and gone
No distant promise will wait until you’ve
Missed her
To make you lie awake and wonder
All night long
All night long
Hot colors are running thru your hair
This is the season to take the fall
But when you’re with me
You’re not really there
And there’s no reason
No reason at all
But there’s one thing to remember
Don’t toy with emotion
There’s just one thing to remember
She’s one in a million
One more
To forget
One more
To forget
One more
To forget.

Poetry is about word
and image just
as music is about
sound and image.
Untold millions
of musicians
on the internet, but where is Art?
Artists live on the threshold of
past and future every
waking moment,
a dangerous proposition.
Strange to
say aloud
what can't be
understood,
stranger to understand.
