Shifting
Sands
We try to look back
and recognize ourselves
finding in vain
that same image
ravaged through
winds of time
a breeze or storm
all working towards
us as we are now
footsteps blown away
fresh prints on the
plane of our existence
now here now there
some strengthening
merging into us
till they leave us
still struggling
to find ourselves
in the spaces
left behind....
