Swift sands passing through
the hourglass.
Groping at each grain,
I move like a ghost
through the valley
of the dead.
A dead body cannot relocate
A dead mouth cannot scream.
Dead hands cannot grasp,
cannot pick up the world
and transcribe their meaning upon it.
I fade into transparency,
the sand falls through my fingers.
I move like a ghost
through the valley
of the dead.
