A living-death
To be - traversing;
this cavernous,
mortal-desert,
throughout the despairing;
caves, and, pits,
and, dunes.

To take steps alongside;
an ever-reaching arch,
a well-travelled sole,
a saintly, elusive
set of footprints...

...is to walk over
one-hundred-million-miles,
in an omnipresent;
other's vessel,
skin, and, shoes.

For-you-may-think,
that-you-mind,
and-that-your-mind,
is-a-divine-design,
and-is-yours;
forever-to-own.

And-that-your-body,
is,
only-borrowed.

Yet-your-soul-existed,
long-before,
and-after;
us,
the-concept-of-time,
and-all-of-our;

future-plans-for-another-today;

while-fearing-a-living-death.

Only-then,
to-die;
reborn;
tomorrow.
