Tilting of the Monument
After the curtain comes down
when masks are tossed aside
the applause becomes an ember
can you live with the left overs
will you devour yourself
then grow into your flower
What is left at the very end
a mind at ease or gray mayhem
were you truly loved or hated
what does the equation say
who'll care enough to read your script
when time gently tilts your monument.
