Nicole Bearden (NB): Today we are here with Black Sun from Volunteer Park. I appreciate you taking a moment to engage with us this morning.

Black Sun (BS): Yes, a good conversation passes the time.

NB: Well, we will certainly attempt to make it a good conversation. You have been in the park since 1969. Do you have any favorite moments from the past fifty or so years?

BS: The more people change, the more they remain the same. People, seasons, time—they all cycle, they all come back to incipience.

I bear witness to the spinning wheels of time, the turning clock of seasons, and the joys and sorrows of man—I bear it all and it is both a heavy burden, and a lightsome ecstasy.
