Sacrifice Recalled
I dreamed that by a grey-blue sea
Familiar columns beckoned me,
An onyx temple rearing stark
Against the surf so dark.
But in the temple drawn-out screams
Destroyed nostalgic dreams—
The screams were mine, some four
Millennia ago, in life before…
Black deja-vu, on Time’s far shore.
