Aftermath

(Matthew)

 

There is a square

Upon the

Ground

That has no sides

 

There were

Three walls more

Like pillars, a

Doorway, and more

 

There was life, and

I could name each

Part: mother,

Daughter,

Neighbor child,

Love

 

Spry forms that

I could see

And touch; now

None

Remains

 

I’ve come back to

The place

 

I heard it had

A name;

I no longer care
