Echoes

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Dec 22, 2018

Echoes!
Faint echoes
abound.
Ghosts in
the ether.
Faint, subtle.
Barely discernible.
Information
never lost
 yet
nearly so.
The void,
filled with
echoes,
forever.
Echoes of 
once was. 
Echoes filled 
with civilizations
noise.
Filled with 
essence,
filled with
history.
Stories
of civilizations.
All that ever
was, just echoes.
Echoes filled
with ethos,
filled with
poems,
filled with
 aspersions, 
filled with each 
civilizations
 essence.
All they
 represented.
Gone now!
Passing like
ghost ships.
Ghost ships
in the
night.
Echoes
passing thru
echoes.
Commingling.
Meeting!
Ghosts, meeting
ghosts deep
in the void!
Exchanging,
yet
never to 
have met
at all.
