Never to speak of this that you have seen, Swear by my sword.

After swearing, I found I really needed to share this story. I couldn’t speak it. I had sworn true, but I could sing it. I could dance it. I could pantomime it. I could sketch it. I could play it out on my drum, on the spoons, on guitar, on the table. I could act it, illustrate it, paint it, sculpt it, photograph it or any combination of it all, just to get it out. If I had to, I could abstract it, obscure it, layer it in metaphor, paint or ornamentation. I can lie all over the truth if I have to.
