Through a hole in ground
he fell
into a faded room.
Many people are there.
All talking.



Some’re gesturing their hands awkwardly,
distorting their faces -
to help the words.



Not a word could he understand.
They all became a hum,
that made his body shiver.



God, is there anything else?



Keep on looking.
Keep on looking.



In accord they all repeated.
