Cordless Everyone now knows of the falling tower The squires are running hungrily through the courtyard In and out of the throne; each thinks he is king - of the city - celebrating the fall of a monumental symbol pushing the birds into the sky reshaping each castle. Forms of white dash around the protesters Trying to force the catalysts back into the town. Yet even they don't know their way through the streets as the bricks rise and fall into unfamiliar stairways and corners. The uncalled force of the king, they keep these halls the same Yet grow looser and looser as the years go by. Only the clowns sleep among the stones Unaware of the events in the world of dust. Lost in a bliss under the streetlight As the bulb is pushed higher and higher Into the future. |

Some interesting imagery here, and even if it wasn't your intent, I'm viewing some current events in this piece. BTW, welcome to Pips! |
