The soft female voice counting in the local language stopped abruptly as a wave crashed into the shore with a thundering noise.

I'm still here
sliding on waves of ephemerity
drifting like dust
in a fleeting breeze
diving into echoes
that do not last

people are dreams
scattered fragments—
shards of random shapes
adrift in fading memories

smoke drifts far
the silence stays –
petals spin
over embers

spring returns
where soldiers knelt –
whispers of the past
remain

eight steps swirling

in fickle dances of existence
masks are worn, faces hidden
the self is just a whisper
an echo in the chambers of being
lost in plays of names and roles

no one remembers
no one cares
why do I still
trace these eroding marks
with hands that tremble
under the crushing weight
of eternity
