NOTHING SURVIVES
Words leap over words
Trounce each other
Silence survives.
Trounce each other
Silence survives.
Time runs over time
Flatten each other
Memory survives.
Flatten each other
Memory survives.
Pages pile over pages
Bury each other
Reader survives.
Bury each other
Reader survives.
Love wrestles with love
Trample each other
Nothing survives.
Trample each other
Nothing survives.
