It was early in the morning and after fixing a cup of tea he set out for the beach. The cool sand of the night felt strange on his feet but kind of nice and the deserted beach with the sound of the waves made him feel alive. Gazing at the faint glow on the horizon filled him with the expectation of another day and he wondered how many sunrises had he experienced in his many lives here on planet earth and other mysterious places. How long had he been adrift living life after life moving forward towards an unknown future. The silence was broken by his neighbors dog Howie barking calling for his morning walk.

He floats upon the great and terrible sea,
merciless waters that rise unabated till,
at last, they cover over head and tail the
man who once walked tall and proud o'er
a landlocked shire.Civilization exists by cosmic decree, yet, on
celestial whim, all that man has wrought
burns or drowns or rends itself in twain, no
one the savior of his fellow nor protector
of riches amassed.He knows - he truly knows - that all he was
warned to do it is now too late to ponder
or act upon; for he laughed that Fate might
ever have her way and carry him off to a
place of dark and living death . . .
