Gone in the mist.
Gone from this world.
Lost in a rainbow of colors.
Dead to us.
Alive for others.
Gone in the mist.
Gone from this world.
Lost in a rainbow of colors.
Dead to us.
Alive for others.
“Institute Benjamenta” (1995) dir. Timothy Quay, Stephen Quay
Has he come for me?
I hear his footsteps.
Walking up the steps.
The leaves stop rustling.
The wind stops blowing.
The silence is overpowering.
Is he standing outside the door,
Waiting for me to open it?
I won’t.
I won’t let him in.
He wants me.
I won’t become one of The Dead.
THE DEAD GAME
Follow the yellow lines.
They take you to the future.
To where no man has trod.
To pink mountain tops.
To snow-filled valleys.
To fluffy white clouds.
To wherever your imagination
Wants to take you.
Happy trails!
It comes in the night.
It comes to all.
To all who sleep.
To all who lie awake.
It comes on soft wings.
It comes in silence.
I lie and wait.
In trepidation.
In fear.
For it.
by: (Antonio Carrillo)
In the field of blue
I will roam.
In the ocean of flowers
I will be free.
In the sunshine
I will soar.
In this world
I will be happy.
Yes.
I will.
The moon goes
through its phases.
Becoming smaller
each day.
Until it’s gone.
Leaving no trace
of its former self.
That is when The Dead
will come for us.
In the darkness.
In the coldness.
In the dark of night.
THE DEAD GAME
Beautiful.
“When the sunlight hit the trees,
all the beauty and wonder come together.
Soul unfolds its petals.
Flowering and fruiting of plants starts.
The birds song light up the spinal column
and harmonize the hippocampal functioning.”

Cover me with leaves.
Shade me with your glory.
Heights towering above.
A protective cocoon.
