Overgrown

Your hands are temples,
Elegant architecture,
Alabaster; let your
Foundation fall, swallow
The empty, earthen hollow
In me, deep.


For when you leave,
The walls grow luminous,
Ruinous, gone to us:
A forgotten room. And
Soon, these seeds sown
Seek light, tight, choking,
In me, overgrown.
