(where did hoopoe go?)
Be still
Look
Listen
Look
carefully
Listen very
carefully
All that you
hear, see
Eavesdropped
conversations, frozen actions
Pattern that
spins life
Symmetry
that awakens soul
Close your
eyes
Soak it in your
memory
Cradle it in
your being
Feel it
pulse out into the darkness
Say a quivering prayer
For the fading
calls
Disappearing
sights
Departing lives
Flickering light you hold onto
