From Robyn on Patreon in 2023
The idea that light flows from us - that we may be ourselves a source of goodness: what a thought! Can flawed and often diabolical creatures like we humans become a source of spiritual nutrition? We’re busy trying to replace ourselves with Artificial Intelligence. What’s that say about us, and the minds we are creating: will they be any more effective than we have been as stewards of this miracle that the universe has entrusted to our care?

Hard to say on this London-bound train at 6:15 on a Sunday evening. Here’s hoping. But the more damaged we are, the brighter redemption glows in our wreckage, like lamps from the Titanic on the ocean floor; the chance of salvation lies within us all - not necessarily via a conventional

belief system; although a god, a saint, an idol or even a trolleybus can act as a prism through which our prayers/wishes/manifestations can text the Almighty Multiverse. As George Harrison hinted strongly, this lies within us and outside us. Yeah, glow, baby - it’s your time!

This is a first draft of a song that I really hope will be on my forthcoming LP. Most of the material has been demoed here on Patreon - I hope y’all enjoy the record when it’s done, which should be this autumn. Thank you for your continued support in this world of stained-glass carnivores; love on ye, RH
