Am not I A fly like thee? Or art not thou A man like me? For I dance And drink and sing Till some blind hand Shall brush my wing." - William Blake "Little Fly" ----------------------------- Way To Blue by Lady Disdain <The_Lady_Disdain@mailcity.com> "Don't you have a word to show what may be done Have you never heard a way to find the sun Tell me all that you may know Show me what you have to show Won't you come and say If you know the way to blue? Have you seen the land living by the breeze Can you understand the light among the trees Tell me all that you may know Show me what you have to show Tell us all today If you know the way to blue?" - Nick Drake "Way To Blue" I feel it as soon as I step into the woods. It is as though I have felt it for my whole life but have kept pushed down. I now realize things that I never let myself know before. This earth is not my home. All my life I have never belonged anywhere, I have kept everyone except Scully from getting close to me. Standing here under the trees, I realize that is because I was not meant to stay. The intuition that earned me the nickname Spooky I got from my father. Neither Bill Mulder nor the Cancerman were my father. It does not matter now, they are both dead killed by the same man. I feel that I will finally meet my father tonight. I do not know how I know these things I just know. The feeling gets stronger as I walk through the forest, I begin to hear a voice. Immediately I realize it belongs to Samantha. She tells me to not be afraid, she says they will not hurt me. Samantha tells me not to worry about Scully, she already knows and is allowing me to go. Samantha says that they let Scully listen to my thoughts the other night, she know that I love her and she loves me. That bit of information makes me awash with happiness. Samantha says she has much to tell me but that we are running out of time, the ship is almost done. Samantha's voice fades away as I step into the blue. I hear Skinner calling me but I don't turn back. In the blue I see the others. They too are children of the earth and the stars, it is also their time to go. We all give each other silent nods. Then the ship is ready and I look up into the blue as it's warm light engulfs me. I am going home. "Look through time and find your rhyme Tell us what you find We will wait At your gate Hoping like the blind Can you now recall all that you have know? Will you never fall When the light has flown? Tell me all that you may know Show me what you have to show Won't you come and say If you know the way to blue?" - Nick Drake "Way to Blue" ----------------------------- Send feedback to The_Lady_Disdain@mailcity.com Thanks :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Accurate impartial advice on everything from laptops to table saws. http://click.egroups.com/1/4634/3/_/599222/_/960914662/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------- The X-Files Creative Mailing List Archived at http://www.xemplary.com To subscribe, go to http://www.onelist.com/subscribe/xfc-atxc To unsubscribe, write xfc-atxc-unsubscribe@onelist.com Check out the XFC Feedback list http://www.onelist.com/subscribe/xfc-fdbk ---------------------------------- Imported to ATXC courtesy of NewsGuy news service http://newsguy.com
