Cast in silence
on her throne
amongst the living,
petrified, as all within her
ossified, from fears born of
phantom thoughts and scornful pride:
the origins all but lost to a
hazy sense of righteous zeal,
refusing all old wounds to heal.
He too, across the way
baked by sun and desert winds
heart hardened by many sins
reaching forth with marbled hand
across the shifting seas of sand,
vision fixed within the eyes
he silently stands
agonising their great divide:
they were stately once,
before they died.
