I am nothing
but the call beyond the mountains
of the motherland
The echo of the sea
I am no one
but the river rushing
hushing my mortality with tales of time
Change is my name
I blush twilight and recall eternity
I am nobody
and the uncovered head blessing the rain
I am oblivion
I am the face I've never seen
the dust that rasps the voice I've never heard
tongues I scarcely understand
I am a dream
and the slumber that wakes thousands of miles away
I am the restless eyes that gaze at dust posing as horizon-al haze
I am the awareness of continuity
I am trouble in peace
calm in calamity
I am desert flutes and jungle drums
I am impossible
as flesh without desire
Thoughts without wonder
I am cipher
beyond cosmic dictation
Extra-dimensional bagatelle
the topic between space and time
the disagreement between was and is
I am fact beyond ignorance
eons of agony and bliss spawning life
and the system of chaos
I am nothing
but the remnant of all I don't know
Evidence of my history
