Publishers blurb:
Wanderers break fast upon weathered stone.
Wreathed in gossamer, she judges atop her throne.
As you seek the ashen gate,
ensure your past does not dissipate.
Take care within this temple time-lost,
and beware each threshold crossed.
Peer back, search your memory.
Grasp at dreams in clouded revery.
Escape untouched this final egress,
to voyage on with wondrous excess.
