Burial
Wandering alone in the night

through desolate worlds of stinging sand

and howling winds,

      seeking, searching for lost dreams...



Stars stare down mocking and cold,

gibbous moon a vast malignant orb laughing

in ebon sky as I grope amongst sand dunes,

      feeling my dreams and hopes sift

      through my fingers as the sterile sand...



Crying out defiance and rage,

I stumble on, even as the storm thickens

and closes in--vision dims, then fails,

and the shifting, swirling sands enclose me,

      just as time enclosed and buried my dreams...



      Darkness swallows me even as I scream

      my rage to the merciless winds,

         and I am cast adrift in limbo...


                                            February 11, 1974
