–– a distant past ––

under the bamboo of the forest

meeting you while the leaves scraped quietly

 

spinning the cobwebs

praising the words of the devil

creaming me

 

always wondering in the light of the candle

if I were born yesterday

 

spite creeps it away

it's always dark

 

murmurs of wonder

persistent heaviness of the lids

we broke the hourglass

 

then there are my memories of the rain

 

––always eternal––

––everlasting––

––grieve––
