The Witnesses Log
V
The Dreamers travel
to the Other World.
They are sent
to places of darkness
and places of light.
When they come back,
they bring back pieces
of the Other World.
The pieces comfort us
when we are lost.
They speak to us.
One of the pieces
spoke to us
in a language
no one understood.
Someone said
it sounded like blood,
or water.
The Dreamers said
that is what The Listeners
sound like
when they speak:
Like blood, or water.
No one knows how
to speak like that,
the Dreamers said.
No one knows how
to speak
like blood, or water.
No one.
