SILENCE IS FASTER GOING BACKWARDS

He stepped outside
of himself.

Closed the door
of reality

behind him
with a sharp short click.

"Where had the time gone?"
he asked of a mirror.

"There is no time here!"
answered the reflection.

"So this is...eternity?"
he heard his thought say.

He took another step
left behind this world of flesh.

Here, where
not even memory

...persists.
