In the Dark House, a presence looms on the periphery of your vision. Faint faerie music chimes mystically as you turn a corner in the corridor that wasn't there before you met the man who wasn't there before upon the stairs that were not there before.
And then a Door. A Doorway. Adore weigh. It's there, just as in your dreams! It's there: small, as if for pets! A faint glimmer emanates from behind it.
To ingress is to transgress, and transgression is punishable by defenestration, on a case by casement basis. Will you take the journey, tear the veil and step through? At the end of the day, such openings are few and far between. In fact, only three have been identified within the known universe, but scientific theory predicts that 19, or 11, or 31 are necessary and sufficient to uphold the fabric of reality, or the pillars of creation, if you prefer. And don't forget, it's turtles all the way down.

I'm all about portals and wormholes, and also the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Swear I'm going to find that thing before I become a permanent resident of the Netherworld!
Awesome painting!
Tempest, or the pot of rain at the end of the goldbow! But seriously, perhaps there is no permanence, anywhere, anywhen. Thanks for your comment. Cheers, MM
