Yesterday
a monument burned
ancient
wood ignited
after
years of drought
glyphs in the grain
scolded
stone
legacy cracked
crown
toppled
by
marching indifference
Glowing
in the darkness
throwing
light
cinders
drifting
stars
made
Tears
shed over stories not yet said
tales
already told, forever altered
the engagement in
its shadow
laughter
sheltering from rain
beauty in complex
simplicity
Pores
blocked with ash
choking
on thorns
drowning
for money
A
forest devoured
(The day after Notre Dame burned)
