Traces - For Sienie Poem by Charl JF Cilliers
Traces - For Sienie
All journeys lie
traceless in the grave
effort spilled into
chasms of the past
spilled into wishful
thinking wells of intent:
pursuing tracks of bird-flight
in the wind
searching for a white ship’s
traces in the swell
gazing at a candle
burning in its darkness.
Know
the dust lying
restless in your hand
is all you have
and have to understand.
