and it's a dance that is frenzied - much to do, much to create - like they are playing midwives to the light.

Like a birth.

Light/life.

I really like it, CaliforniaPeggy.

Creativity is a small insect riding on the wing of the Phoenix, hopping off before she burns and rejoining after. Never dying, always alive.

Someone sitting in the water with their feet above it and a wave is washing over, that way it's not upside down.
