"...The space is
dark and very small, not much bigger than the crouching figure cowering
inside.

Four walls just touch a brutally bare skin shivering next to their oppression, searching for meaning in unforgiving hardness.

Cold.
Damp.
Disembodied silence.
Bereft.

A mind reels inside its imprisoned place, clawing
at memory, at time and space and reason, desperately searching for
silent order where there is only fear; a white noise of hopeless chaos..."

Writer, journalist, student of Global Society


Why in today's world do we still give voice to those with the power to effect and not to those affected by our actions?

My passion is humanity, the planet and its rhythms - living in tune and listening to what is as yet unheard. I am fanatical about the utility of expression, communication, respect and purpose. Most of all I am working for both the idea and reality of access to human dialogue.
