A poem from the book:

Blow, O winds, from wherever you wish.. and erase the ruins and traces

And sweep away, O winds, the sign of this night until it becomes a shrouded night

And roar, O winds, in the sanctum of time, a roar that shakes the ages

Blow.. and sweep away.. as if you were harnessed as a madness that assaults life

Blow.. and roar.. as if you were jealousy that cast its hatred as sparks and fire

Blow like madness in the mind of a youth whose resolve and dignity were violated by rage

Blow like doubts in the soul of the blind, snatching his senses wherever he went

Blow like annihilation that sweeps away nests and fells the birds

Blow like loyalty struck by betrayal.. which it overlooked, then rose in fury

Blow like misguidance mocking a guide who mastered the deserts with knowledge, yet got lost

Blow like sorrow awakened from patience, unable to rest, and boiled over

Blow and sweep away, for you are but a blessing that creates ruin with power

A world that, along with its inhabitants, was nothing but specters of vengeance competing!
