Ruined Temple

Here once stood a temple

the columns are all that remain

of an idea

that changes

the more people see it

and when they invade your dreams

to control your future

all you can see

is the ruins

of your past

In the sky

they came

to consume each other

and their form took shape

to reveal their true intentions

turning to face me

had fear not been my ally

their gaze

would have consumed me

Lizard

when they move

through the scorching sun

to catch a prey

that cannot see them

because they make no noise

and cast no shadow

Moth

the less you see

the more you have

the light that attracts

is the one they search for

they consume the best

leaving the rest

to rot

Snake

on sand

they leave no trace

for they are not made

to stand

they can move

through the land

Ants

they never quit

their everywhere you go

but you never see them

until

your one of theirs

Spider

woven in

to their web of sin

a string of hope

that leads

to them

Vulture

picking the bones clean

what is left

are the remains

of a victim

unable to save himself

Scorpions sting

before you realise

that death is fast approaching

time seems to slow down

and all around you

turns to darkness

here you will find peace

Cats

playful and curious

loyal and fierce

when they are together

their dominion is all-encompassing
