This is my planet, I live here
February 4, 2007
When I was a kid I was obsessed with portals. I would go back into the woods by myself and find a hollowed out tree or cave and I would crawl in hoping to emerge in a different world. This practice was probably motivated by the Chronicles of Narnia, Dungeons & Dragons (the cartoon) and ten thousand frantic birds of overactive imagination- all fluttering underneath a thin blanket- it is frightening.
Anywhat lately I have started looking for portals again. I can say with some certainty that there isn’t one in the crawlspace of my house and that if you go into the library archives, walk deep into the sliding shelves, and someone closes them on you, you won’t appear in a magical world of cucumbers and elves. If anyone finds a portal please come back and tell me okay?
