In the scaffolds of dark towers: ring, let yourself sound. Whatever eats at you will take its fill in nourishment. Go; change and be done. What eats you the most? If drinking\u2019s bitter, become the wine. Be in this night the excess of enchantment, a strange encounter at the crossroads of sense and mind. And if earthly things forget you, tell the quiet earth: I flow.

These performance videos arise directly from our local Section work. Some of these works were premiered at Section-inspired <strong>New Moon Salons<\/strong>. These New Moon Salons, which feature literature and music, will resume when it is safe for us to meet in person. The local Section group in Fair Oaks has inspired a sub-group of artists dedicated to the study and performance of Fairy Tales (M\u00e4rchen), Myths, Legends.
