Traveler
Curiosity turned into passion. A passion to explore the unknown.
Time. Space. Alternate history. I visited them all.
And my memories unfolded...
Worlds I explored.Arrakis. Gethen. Narnia.
Characters I observed.Zaphod Beeblebrox. Severian.Winston Smith.
Wonders I experienced.Clocks that struck thirteen.Monoliths that searched minds ofape-like men.Farm animals that spoke of revolution.
Gods of worlds that I was privileged to.Wolfe. Asimov. Lewis. Clarke.
But you wondered about how I made the impossible possible.
Inventor of faster-than-light travel?Navigator of black holes?Man familiar with alien technology?
I responded with three simple words.
"No. I read."
