Eater of the Eastern Wind

" The Eastern winds vanish beneath my ears. The moon cannot leave the grasp of my hand. Speak, little man. I hear many small things. "

" Why do you hold on to the moon? "

" I hold because were I to let go, this night would turn to day, and I would be alone again. "

" Were it always night would you not learn to appreciate the warmth again on your skin in absence? Is faith not enough for you that it may come back? "

" Little man, faith is a curse. A prolonging for that which you cannot hold, and may never so.  It is a slow and drying death. I tire with you. Carry your dry death elsewhere. "

" Let me stay awhile longer, would you? I too have been alone far too long. "

"As you wish, little man. "
