Metempsychosis

World without end
Nothing ceases
And all essence transcends

The words

'And to make an end is to make a beginning'

Every phrase

'And what we call the beginning is often the end'

Searching for the words that are …..
What shall I call them?
Spectres! Ghosts!
Apparition!
What shall I say?

'Every phrase and every sentence is an end and a beginning'

Scratching in the soil for words
Used, discarded
Left to rot
What is there to write?
With words that no longer function
Having succumbed to the fire
Being lost to the sea's throat

'The end is where we start from
And that is where we start'

And that is where we cease
