Gravestone, New poem


Gravestone

I am a niche
a bloodline, a cavity
in the mouth of the earth
I reek of calamity
poring the tomes
like a gravestone of something
mighty
that believed in itself
expressed itself
in the presence of others
now only pages
hear me speak to the dark
my brother my enemy
holding on
to the lines

of each sort that could bury me
