Just like that, the wind lost its breath;
the natural vibrato of the ocean's waves became an elegy,
and only the light from midnight stars pulsed
as your heart slipped away.
In the century of quiet, that filled the empty moment,
"They understood that wisdom comes of beggary."
from "The Seven Sages" by W.B. Yeats

...inspired by 'The New Faces' by W.B. Yeats
We dead shall walk the hallways unopposed,
and lend an air of mystery to paint
and plaster peeling, thus exposed
when daylight turns to dusk; for there's a faint
uneasiness as new ones gather, pested
to hear our ghostly whisperings and may
have second thoughts, their courage tested;
were we not bolder occupants than they?
