So amazingly enough, even though I'm not a huge fan of prose and poetry, in my senior year of high school, I wrote in my poetry journal like there was no tomorrow. Some are songs, some are "poetic thought", some are...whatever.
In the creative writing class and the club (both of which I helped found), we would, of course, be given time to freewrite, and we had permission to listen to our ipods (with headphones only, of course) to help us write. I heard one of my favorite trance tracks -Clear Blue Water (Ferry Corsten Remix) by Ocean Lab, and I had to write down what came from the beautiful inspiration.
This piece is a mixture of lyrics and what I imagined from the song, a passage I wrote in The Pirate Game (in which the main character Vladeque transports to a sacred pool via an enchantment on his bath ), and a deeper spiritual interpretation of Vladek's experience transporting from a bath to a pool in another land and dimension. It also remind(s)/(ed) me of the sacred pools (somewhat representing baptism) in Ted Dekker's Circle Trilogy/series, particularly in his first book, Black, where Thomas Hunter hears the voice of that realm's version of God while in the water.
I suppose it can also be considered a meditative piece, because that's what it did for me. I felt a connection with the Holy Spirit, and with the recesses of my own being, and in just the brief moment I wrote it, it helped me feel...amazing.

(p.s.: I tend to be able to breathe underwater in my dreams. However, it doesn't make life more pleasant in water in my dreams, because there are usually crocodiles, alligators, and sharks in the water, biting at my legs as I swim. ALWAYS!!! ANY body of water, too!)

I read that trilogy. I loved it as a story, but i didn't like how that world/time had a separate God. God is such that they would have the same God as our own. if there are multiple realities (and I see no reason God should make only one), The same God exists across all of them.
