Pillars Fall

Pillars Fall Pillars fall between swift moving clouds collapsed They were once white fluffy ghosts along the coast Statues watch suspiciously at a distance Recognize their engineered solidity secure Their facility for beauty, at play inside the mist As history deforms, goes on into the fog forewarned Structures hold themselves together tenuously Marbled and clean relaxed They too fall between the cracks Pillars come apart for lack of care Love barely holds them in a coupled hand A formula somewhere in the distance Turns cylindrical objects into powder over time To become the gray serene Pillars hold themselves together Follow swift clouded logic clear In a crash they fall collapsed Being Inanimate has detractors Advantages unseen across the ages A sound echoes from the past Disappears like laughter silenced Or a pillow soft, objects lost Pillars dissapear
