HOLLOWED
In hollowed gaze of stone n sky
Faces stares wide—unblinking
Eyes holds the weight of ruin
Silent, swollen n echoes of time
A needle of diagnosed, poised, fleeting?
A thread of fate?
Or weapons against the void?
Pillars stand silently sentinel
Crumbled a world once aloud
Once flesh, now dust, blown…
An eye, unyielding
Drinks in the eternity
Life clings to the debris
A spiral deepens, pulling all beneath
Cracks in fractal, monument
Something lingers
Something we cannot forget
Turning, a slow descent
Toward the end of all things
Or perhaps
…a beginning unseen.
