"We know what we are, but not what we may be" - Shakespeare




 



To disappear is to



1. Cease to be visible; 



to cease to exist or be in use. 



To depart from



oneself leaving remains of 



the body in a pile of ashes 



spread across the Atlantic.



Recordings of words 



    repeating     and 



repeating and repeating,



this echo of smoke sparkles 



like a newborn starlight  



   stolen from the deep coal sky.



Numbers are standards left 



heavily on my caving shoulders,



struck my angry fists. 



To reappear is to 



1. Come into sight or view;



to appear again,



to come back             and 



    return to the lost.
