Mother said she drempt
and saw into a gloomy depth
where she glimpsed
souls engulfed
within the world's
wounds.
Mother said she saw
where demons traipsed
back and forth into the twelfth
of hell,
while anxious
angels
kept a watch amongst
the dreaming adze*
lest they awake the monster
waiting in the nothing.
* Adze: a vampiric being in Ewe folklore, told by the people of Togo and Ghana.
