Antilochus greets me in a dream.

Within the meadows of Asphodel, 

we were faced. 

Holding two lanterns in each hand, 

his right remained unlit.

unfulfilling figure in contradiction 

guides my paralleled sight.

Enshrined on the mound 

of an unknown promontory, 

my grave lay. 

I search for the path of the in between, 

but find the door, far too narrow. 

The man stands, 

calmly swaying me 

back to slumber.

I awaken, 

the violent stench of gloaming 

holds a veil over my eyes, 

blended within the charcoal canvas.

the shrine reminding reality, 

a crack in the curtain leaks light. 

An insignificant leak, 

Of white perennials 

stain the bedroom,

with cleansing color. 

my eyes, acclimate to its light 

prodigal familiarity, 

the subtle warmth dissipates. 

I am reminded of the man.

Discerning the manner 

in his cotton grin.

Unmemorable pallor stature on

of obscurity.

a dried pumice stone grazes 

my painful recollection.

Introduced to fertile afterlife, 

of paradox he spoke through,

of the path he offered. 

impending existence 

was my promise, 

the mediocre shadow of my fate.
