The sasquatch sees a bird in flight
when it disappears
something inside him says
you too will disappear

how
     when
          why
he knows not

Feiceann an sasquatch
éan ar eite
nuair a imíonn sé as radharc
labhrann rud éigin ann féin:
imeoidh tusa leis

conas
     cathain
          cén fáth
ní heol dó
