The desert sands swirl about me The realm of cruel Set envelops me I am lost in the desert No one hears my anguished cries As the sands continue to blow Stinging my squinted eyes I cry out to You in desperation, O Isis I cry out to You in anguish, O Isis I have…

I fell horribly behind and kept neglecting Her the last couple of months and just saying, “It’s okay, I’ll roll Her over into next month’s GMC.” Of all the Gods She probably understands the problems facing writers, being married to…

Somehow I accidentally deleted the post of this collage from yesterday. So, here it is again, my devotional college for Athena, my first time doing a digital collage.
