Statues of former kings
Weep concrete tears
A puddle forms, a pool of nothingness
in which a stone is cast, the ripples
are grand, spellbinding ringlets
challenge the senses. I don't know
what anything is anymore. Someone
please help me to understand, my being
demolished, a drop of burgundy in the
concrete, the cracks in the sidewalk
drink it up like nectar from the gods.
