We enter existence alone.
We expire alone.
Despite our companions.
I sense profoundly
We remain alone.

i live

in a land of spirits

shadows wedged amidst limestone crags

lives rolling as waves

through the currents

of time

present souls promenade

not feeling their presence

nor caring

they ever lived

i stroll in their presence

consoled

like them, no more, no less

i am merely

a fellow shadow, spirit

amidst the topography



of history
