Ghost of a mountain
And ghost of a moon;
Night birds sink droopingly
Over the dune
Clouds drifting hazily
Stars blurring through;
Darkness come close to me—
Darkness and you.
Mist on the water
And mist in the sky;
Netted with silver
The waves ripple by.
Ghost of a solitude
Lit with dead stars.
You have your memories
I have my bars!
