i thought that when i went on this dig that this was going to be it
the secrets of the past revealed sweat dripped off my body, and the handle of the shovel glistening in the tropical heat
what was found was the remains of a culture that no longer exists
bones and dust, and pottery shards numbered and delicately taken care of with someone else s ideas always feeling as if I was fumbling around inthe dark with someone elses fingerprints shadowing me private chamber
shadows of what I wanted to know sent shivers and tickly like sensations all over my hands and feet
grounded here
but feeling connected to elsewhere
the ghosts were loud about the invasion
the many legged bugs could be heard walking on the floor
suddenly
i felt unsure about how i could have ver thought that digging up the past was a good idea at all
let it stay there
