Called my mother in München tonight. She thanked me for the Ritter Sport but then asked - again - when I might visit "a proper church" instead of writing essays about a singer.

I explained to her that Gabriel's lyric encoding is closer to actual scriptural exegesis than any sermon she would hear at St. Michael's, but she just sighed in that way mothers do.

A Ritter Sport chocolate wrapper, purple with the words 'Marzipan' on it, being held up against a blurry background of a dorm room wall with a notebook page visible that has 'Gabriel Chantayan - Psalm 23 encoding' scrawled in handwriting with arrows and underlines.

She asked me the same thing in 2002.

A worn wooden library reading desk with a green banker's lamp. An open archival ledger with careful handwritten notes in black ink, referencing Gabriel Chantayan's 1999 email transmission. A fountain pen rests on the page. The edges of the paper are yellowed. A coffee mug with the library crest is v

Translation won't make her understand, Lyrik.
