#Thai สวดมนต์ข้ามปี
New Year's Eve traditions usually include merrymaking into the wee hours of the morning. This year, however, social-distancing restrictions and a new omicron variant meant we opted to listen and learn a new way to show appreciation to the blessings of a new year. My Mother-in-law spent hours chanting from approximately 8PM to well past midnight.

DEAR READER
Welcome to my literature, music, and visual poetry project. My blog represents a method for deciphering the fragments left behind in the Anthropocene. Writers use ashes as a metaphorical device in storytelling. Have you ever wondered about the symbolism of ashes? Archaeological fragments of tablet, papyrus, bone, scroll, and pottery are recognizable the world over. In our digital era, however, our lost folkloric works disintegrate into dust. In this sense, I consume the silver flakes and use my he{art] as a vessel to rise from dystopic wastelands. I share lore through the oral tradition. Ashes to Ashes we continue on ∞ to infinity ∞ We are ash. We are stories. We are star dust. We are eternal.
