Originally, the leper and the golem were expressions of Omar and Mike, respectively. The personalities and their life long friendship complimented my vision nicely. Then you made me leave, and the whole story became alive in a way that I never could have imagined beforehand. These two people spoke to me in new tongues, demanded a different past and a different future and I could do nothing but acquiesce. I recognize them now when they rear their heads into my life. The leper lost his love and by chasing that which he lost, even more was stripped from him. His ability to remain decent, even hopeful, in the face of so much loss is very much a part of me. As for the golem, that naivete and sense of wonder has been a calling card of mine since I was old enough to consider the world around me. They want the same things I want, and I sad to say that one of them will die pursuing it.
But I died once too and was brought back. I feel out of place, once in a blue moon. That inkling of "maybe I should've.." creeps in and lingers. Death is a character in my novel, and he loves to touch the golem. Maybe I shouldn't ever let anyone read it, everything that's true about me will be inside.
