Endless Story
How does a lonely man die
how does his soul transcend
into astral genes and
in the hand of God that through
the ages resurrect the youth.
What does his primeval memory
remembers
of cascading colors
of painful rebirths
the whistling wind that hurls
messages in code
to the roots of cells
where life twists
its edge with beaks of birds
that transfer reflection
and whooshing of waves.
What is his identity
or even his destination
as naked as he is and hanging off
the tunnels of time
undisputed reward
of eternity.
