The power of the dead is that we think they see us all the time. The dead have a presence. Is there a level of energy composed solely of the dead? They are also in the ground, of course, asleep and crumbling. Perhaps we are what they dream. 
May the days be aimless. Let the seasons drift. Do not advance the action according to plan.

I actually really liked it! I liked the writing style and the messaging was interesting, intentionally heavy-handed. I was surprised by this one. It is absurdist in a very grounded way.
