Alone The only one you really loved, the only one who truly knew every nuance of your desires, every throb of your fickle heart, every faint whisper of your fears or how your tears go unshed and buried deep, deep within some lower chamber of your breast . . . the only one, the only one, who has been standing with you all along, through every torment, every triumph, all the loves and all the loathing, an anchor in a tumultuous sea; all the time, I have been right here with me. © Ward Kelley |

Artist's note: Castor and Pollux, in classical mythology were twins; Castor was mortal, Pollux, immortal. When Castor was killed in battle, Pollux mourned so grievously that Zeus took pity on him and allowed the brothers to take turns at life and death. Ward Kelley Bonfire contributor |
