Waking up soaked in sweat;
I have been banished to the Rock of Death,
I have violated the taboo,
And only the ostracized may speak to me.
This is nothing tangible.
It will slip through my fingers,
As I desperately cling onto the grains;
Billions of years in the making
With only a few moments left.
If she is lucky,
She will turn into glass
That no one can look through.
She will erode into the sea,
Embracing the currents like a lost lover;
Touch the living no longer.
You have heard the cicadas shriek
I promise those are the cries of The Damned,
Have you heard silence on a summer’s night?
This Being has no absolute;
I am in a holographic universe.
