They tell me in my wake:
They tell me in my wake: "You and the world you live in are just grains of sand on the endless shore of the endless sea." In my dream I tell them: "I am the boundless sea and all the worlds are just grains of sand on my shore."

I once filled my hand with rage. Then I opened it. There was nothing there but sand. And I heard a song of exceeding sweetness
