People and the plural peoples
Are either young or old
They die, live and are born
Endlessly searching for solace
They bleed, feel and mourn
Living souls in mortal shells
Held together in finely spun webs
Repeating connections of human cells
Helical lines gesture and sign
Pasts alive in fables and spells
Thought and memories align
Glancing forward and back in time
Received wisdom and memories
Endlessly etched and frozen
In silent gestures and mime
