And after the fish, I began to swim. My eyes were opened and I saw the light. The candles kept growing into silver porches, and the flowers walked under them like green girls with chorus hats. Their flames looked at me like the eyes of tigers just waking from sleep. Lying on their sides and opening one eye at a time. Tiger, tiger, burning bright. A ravening brute with a breath like a rotten corpse and septic claws. This beauty grows with cruelty.

An excerpt from Ryan Hurtgen of Telephant's collection of short stories entitled ASLEEP IN GREEN (A supplement to the album **with bonus tracks!)
“This body has become a sarcophagus. I am asleep! Lying perfectly mo-tionless, and feeling as if my spirit has risen out of my body, like a va-por. Tonight I will circumnavigate the globe in a search for any interested shape that would have me take up its form. I will fly like a wild wind across vast plains of memory, and you are the love that propels me through it all. This becomes my journey every time I dwindle on the edge of slum-ber. Every night I stand up there staring below at an endless abyss of the unconscious. Down there below, are my dreams. “
