    One of my favorites is a man who calls himself Javan. He has four paperback books and they are all just really beautiful.

    Lear!

    Then, through the vast and gloomy dark,
    There moves what seems a fiery spark,
    A lonely spark with silvery rays
    Piercing the coal-black night,
    A meteor strange and bright:
    Hither and thither the vision strays,
    A single lurid light
