Memento Mori

Splashing along 
Past the wall
Behind which
The off white
Ageless
Stones stare
Back at 
Wanderers
And seekers
And pilgrims
And guests
Memento Mori

Seeking words
In ancient 
Tomes
From long lost
Homes 
And forgotten
Names
Of every type
And custom
And history
Memento Mori

All the fears
Drawing near
Reduced by
Atheism
Dodging hellfire
Fear of
Not arriving
At final destination
In acknowledgement
Of travellers
Terminus
Memento Mori

This reminds me of the process to form vermiculite, upon heating the mica it puffs up and changes form.

Start with one thing, end with another. Life eh?
