Pegasus & Mnemosyne

Such was the embrace of my lover, Tiamat, those many years now past, that it was as though I had become drunk from the river Lethe itself; and even though tears flowed and years past, still that fateful embrace, that sup deep of the forbidden fruit, didst tear me from the very memory of yesterday, until all that remains, is Now.

Then Now Itself fell from Us until all that remains is Nothing... Not Itself. The Point.

But I digress, I was going to talk about Pegasus and Mnemosyne...

From the point of Not Itself the sorcerer summoned that Titaness, lover of Zeus:

"Come Mnemosyne, Come... let me drink from thy pool, thy cup, thy maw; that We s'alt re-member."

The surface waters are disturbed by the sounds of Joy Division.

"We'll share a drink and step outside
... ...
I've walked on water, run through fire
Can't seem to feel it anymore."

[Joy Division -- New Dawn Fades]

The sorcerer shared a drink with that Titaness, Mnemosyne... supped from Her pool.

Dimly at first, then like unto a reflection in Her waters, the sorcerer glimpsed a horse wing'd... saw what once had been re-veiled to him by one of Mnemosyne's daughters nine; yet he had understood not.

Pegasus

Pegasus and I fly high,
Playing hopscotch in the sky.
We’re happy upon our throne of gold,
Diamonds, pearls and secrets untold.

A void opens below our hoofs,
Spiralling downwards, Devil’s door.
Our games are gone, so too aloofs,
Down to Earth, Pegasus is poor.

... ... ...

As the sorcerer lay beside that pool and embraced the Titaness, not only did the Memory of that wing'd horse, that is his own, return, but with it came Understanding.
