Found a man writing on his bones

by DarkLight   Feb 28, 2012


I found a man writing on his bones,
and I who have never seen a God
know that that man looks like a God.

There was something in his expression
that was the same as the norm or the odor of the suicide,
an abyss or silence
that divides the universe into two precise and nocturnal parts.

He was writing on his bones
as on the sand of a beach burrowed into from above
and with the integrity of an eye
that could keep its thought inside itself.

But I could not look over his shoulder
to see what he was writing
because he was writing on his shoulder too.

    Very good.

    I wonder if I could take a peek and see what he was writing on this shoulder that would be interesting. Though, if he was writing on his bones then does it mean that he was fleshless? And then death comes to my mind. Because his bones would be expose and so I can only picture "The Death." like the person whose job is to take people who are about to die. And the writing could be the names of people who are about to accompanied him into another journey.
