The surface is broken
in labored strikes by shaking hands
stones are split and roots are burned
power is sought in emptiness

Rending life to build a throne
for worms coiled within us
terror breaks the skull
and blades shall pierce the mind

banners are raised and weapons are forged
in greed and hate, numbness and faith
as generations circle the sinkholes of time
throne by throne crumbles to nothing

Stone by stone
does this edifice rise
to sunder the earth and black out the sky
we grasp upwards, sinking faster

Bone by bone
dust for the brick and blood for the mortar
bound to towers that rise
to stand in witness as the world dies
