Great Earth Mother,
Huntress divine,
Chant we now
Your eternal rhyme
Called Diana, Hecate,
Inanna, Bride,
Morrigan, she who is
Three in One,
symbol of the Great
Divide.
Great God, Lord of
living creatures,
The eagle soaring high
Above mountain peaks,
The stag who rides
Through the forest.
Cernunnos, Odin,
Jupiter, Pan -
Charmer of shepherds,
Lord of the dance.
God and Goddess,
The marriage eternal -
one of the lunar,
the other diurnal
We pray all that is,
And ever shall be,
Shall be hallowed to you,
and Blessed Be!
Up! Up! Up I shot,
Growing faster than
Eye could see,
Then my life was
Cruelly cut short.
I might have been
A stately oak,
Firm and full of age,
Or so I thought.
Why, oh what cruel Fate
Would stunt my growth?
To satisfy, perhaps,
The whim of some malicious
God, bored with lissome
and beautiful flowers.
Bored with emotional
perfection, with grace,
and linden tall.
Perfection is only relative,
after all.
Without the Bonsai, without
Me;
Who could say what was
Fair and Free?

The Song of the Traveller
The road winds ever on and on,
Through the lands we know so well,
Over dale, and under dell,
Rushing swiftly,
Crawling slowly,
Ever the road goes on.
As I journey on the road,
I sit sometime, and think aloud,
About all the things I left behind,
All the things I've yet to find,
And many things I can never hope to see.
The rushing road, through the busy streets,
Splits and cracks, then joins and meets
The many ways which I have come,
The many things which I have done,
And everything joins together at my feet.
Through country, town, city street,
The road runs further than I can hope to go.
Although it be my task to wander,

Yes, you read that right. After nearly a year's hiatus (look it up) I plan to release another series. What will it be, I hear you ask.
No, I don't know either. But I DO know a) it'll be bloody fantastic and b) it won't be released before it's ready. Watch this space! Probably either Bryce 5 or Terragen, perhaps a mixture of both if I can get them talking to each other.
No fucking comments? The first picture I upload for bloody MONTHS and all I get is "Nice" from ~kinglanky (https://www.deviantart.com/kinglanky) ?
I know what happened.. you all removed me from your lists.. PUT ME BACK, y'hear?
The current craze for lending the power of one's CPU to ongoing distributed research projects has swept the Internet, seemingly overnight. I read about some sad, sad people who buy new processors (such as one poor fool who bought a completely new dual-Xeon JUST FOR FOLDING).
For those of you who don't know what Folding is, I shall explain. Listen carefully, there may be questions later.
"Folding" is a name given to allocating CPU time to the Foldinghome (https://www.deviantart.com/home) distributed computing research project: see http://www.stanford.edu/group/pandegroup/folding/ for downloads. The project hopes to find cures for cancer, leukemia, and other assorted nasties
