Solilo-kwayteow: Hunger at Midnight

O narratives, they do hate me so.  Or so I thought.  Memories, o memory, thou art in fragments, or even worse, in shards.  Rags and shreds: non-recyclable, except as rags and shreds.

Will you sustain me, o memory in shards and shreds, will you remember me?  You are not a person, though; you are a region in the universe where dust comes and goes, va et vient, o traffic!  No lights, please.  Only sounds, and only sounds of grass shaking, and of roots speaking underground, under the hills.

Hungry for memory, and memories, you do comfort me so.
