The ruin accumulates in layers here—matter reduced, then named—until even the smallest life beneath it feels accounted for, as if the ground itself has been asked to remember what it can no longer hold.

Order settles into place, but the edges keep their own counsel—the boundaries feel less like shelter and more like a quiet arrangement of sightlines, where watching becomes part of the design.

amid lion's tail shrubs,
antelopes grazing in grasses
pause to listen,
fractured earthworms
hide from spiky aloe plants,
delirious hotness cooled

all around the yard
are #lurking #hedges
for the neighbors
to spy through
this curtain of

Hard to be vulgar
when all my woes are carried
by gilded rainclouds...
And the breeze with heavy rain,
driving past the lion's gaze..

Buildings crumbled
Brick by brick
Into piles of rubble
Foundations torn asunder
Littered with pieces
Flotsam of civilization
Our excrement, our feces
Nature couldn’t recover
When the earthworms

Gilded rainclouds drift
through inner hours,
pressure gathers behind
thin skin of breath;
a cup cools on the table,
faint brass trace at its rim,
brightness settles along
the tongue, unspoken;
jaw tightens once,
then unlocks—
a cool sheen holds
where air thickened.
