(Dream 19)
by JEFF MELLIN
A mysterious vision. A cryptic epiphany. A hopeful dream ballad for strange and dangerous times.
Decorated with images adapted from “Chant d’Amour (The Love Song),” a painting by pre-Raphaelite artist Edward Coley Burne Jones, and the “Book of Flowers,” a 16th century nature catalog illuminated for Queen Claude de France.

““Anyone who writes knows that some days you’re arranging driftwood and desert island beach stones, trying to signal an airplane, trying to jury-rig a radio telescope from the stuff in your pockets. And then, other days, you’re soaked catching high tide tsunami water in cups, scrambling to translate an alien transmission. This was the latter. These are strange days, to say the least. Here’s to better days ahead.”
— Jeff Mellin
