I look forward into the great expanse, and I see nothing. It is dry and it is arid and nothing grows, not the toughest of weeds. I walk and I hear nothing. Only the echoing solitary footsteps I force onwards. Ghosts and tears have fallen long ago. All options blur into one: a steamed mirror; a compass that cannot decide which way is North. So onwards and forwards into the plane, though blinded and fearful. For there must be something out there, something for me.
