A sign in an archaeological artifact.

A changing of the tides
leaves questions to ponder
that a life’s mystery in a bottle
has traveled the sands of time
from the far reaches of a third world

For the Truth of history
will redeem itself within
a code, a written word of truth
showing us a way of redemption
an unfolding of an inner soul
to find the answers of the past

A story yet to be untold
