When it's truth we seek then we start to speak
Of the things that matter most
And with time evolved is the riddle solved
That dispels that mythic "ghost."
Not a purpose served when the line is curved
To the point no entrance made:
Let a seed be sown that is granite stone
It's to hold us back, afraid.
When it's Light the lease it engenders peace
While "commanders" lose control:
With the door flung wide not a soul's inside
For that's not the way of Soul.

Special Feature
Replacing the star interview this time we have a selection of the Odes of Sappho. The poetess of ancient Greece, whose name has become associated with Lesbianism is often said to be the earliest poet whose work has survived in written form. Sadly more of her surviving poems are incomplete but in this feature Canadian poet and Classicist Richard Vallance, after extensive study, has undertaken a recreation of Sappho's Odes.
