2000
Memories entangled in the thawing snowpack Years fleeting
under the wandering cloud
Storm breaks
As a lone female bounds away
Where rotting wood collides with her body
Where her soul rains down into the soil
Where skeletons caress the earthworms
2003
Rebirth under fluorescent lights
A moment
A breath
Under sterilized air
Before descending into darkness
Minutes as the messiah
Before re-extinction
