Nature's Element

Banished by nature.
 Condemned to a watery
 grave of recycled

 tears. Struck down in the
 wake of newborn innocence.
 A fallen angel

 surrendered in an
 untimely demise, seizing
 tangible feeling.

 A photographic,
 stagnant beauty entrenched in
 a cleansing casket.

 Existing among
 the wrath of nature’s recourse.
 Embodied silence.
