Somatic Journeying (Episode 16 - The Tower)

Episode 16 - The Tower

Wise men built it long ago, they say. They say that when it was new it gleamed like diamond in the sunlight, a beacon of progress and accomplishment. They must have been so proud of themselves - to have conceived and birthed such a wonder into the world. These days, however, this man-made horror just lurks and looms against the horizon, “full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” Meanwhile, thunderclouds gather in the distance, and the long cracks in the once-seamless foundation silently deepen…

What do you know about the Tower?

Where will you be when it falls?

Episode 16 just might be the last chance you get to consider your own foundations before the impending arrival of inevitable doom. You can run or hide or cry if you like, but none of us will escape this. The Tower is falling. There will be blood, and it will probably be yours.
