The Moment

You only get a moment. I tried to convey it here with cosmic clouds:


Nic Pizzolatto tried to convey it here in True Detective in a similar way:


They are similar because thats the way it happens. Inevitably, we fail to convey what can only be experienced. Its just an indication to point the way.

The moment is here too in this song written by Carl McCoy of The Nephilim in 1988,the year I went to Egypt,and performed again in 2013.Its a song they rarely perform because it isnt about performance.
The lyrics have been copied wrong. It is "when madonnas rise" and "from their corners rise" and "when the moments right".

See the pseudo arab script in light on the floor.See the Light Verse in The Koran.
"This light is lit neither from the east or the west.Its oil would shine forth,though no fire touched it. Light upon light."

You only get a moment, and you are lucky if you catch it.
