Far away and long ago

By the shore of a distant sea

A boy wondered what his life would be

Now he knows:

His life was a column of smoke

Fed to a relentless wind.

His life did not soar to Heaven

Didn't become a beacon,

It was just meat fed to a beast,

It was consumed on the spot,

It did not even satiate its hunger.

No life ever has disturbed or filled the void

Or even stained its implacable, terrible jaws.
