HOLLOWED

In hollowed gaze of stone n sky 
Faces stares wide—unblinking
Eyes holds the weight of ruin 
Silent, swollen n echoes of time

A needle of diagnosed, poised, fleeting? 
A thread of fate? 
Or weapons against the void?

Pillars stand silently sentinel
Crumbled a world once aloud
Once flesh, now dust, blown…

An eye, unyielding 
Drinks in the eternity 
Life clings to the debris

A spiral deepens, pulling all beneath
Cracks in fractal, monument
Something lingers
Something we cannot forget

Turning, a slow descent
Toward the end of all things
Or perhaps 
…a beginning unseen.
