From the Introduction
I have a collection, built bit by bit over the years, of poems and quotes from novels and articles - arrangements of written words to delight in or ponder over. From time to time, I read through them and am struck by those that speak to something that is going on in my life at the time. It helps, sometimes....In some strange way, this all focussed, for me, for a while, on the 'death of a fictional character, the Vulcan Spock. Our place of refuge, our storyteller of hope and inspiration, had changed, joining its voice to the chorus telling us that nothing stays the same, no one wins every time, and everyone dies. The selections on these pages were chosen from my collection for their relevance to some facet of Star Trek. They range from evocation and/or celebration of aspects of the original series to those dealing with emotions called forth by ST II. They speak of defeat and heroism, loss and consolation, death and transcendence. They helped.
