Trifle & Koan

It’s been a strange and wonderful few weeks. Something little shifted in the multiverse and it’s faint ripples reached as far as the shores of this little village on the periphery of Durban, in this holy land. Like a whole part of something I know somehow has changed and I’m…

Morning Coffee

It’s the early hours of the morning and the mighty Atlantic is playing a soothing lullaby on the rocky shoreline. The sky is a rich tapestry of black velvet studded with diamonds dripping all the way down to the horizon. The usually busy wind G-d is having a rare nap…

Ruya & Galip

It’s a surprisingly still morning and the houseguest is nowhere to be seen or heard. There’s an occasional call from a panic of tarentaals as they make their way across the veld at the back of the village. The mighty Atlantic is swooshing around the little bay in front, gently…
