Judge not this race by empty remains
Do you judge God by his creatures when they are dead?
Do you judge God by his creatures when they are dead?
~ Genesis, Watcher of the Skies
We create spaces
Walk away from them
Return, re-visit, renovate
We take what was
And make of it
Something else
Whether for utility
Or a statement
But the hand and mind
Which creates
Is not the hand or mind
Which renovates
While the chief renovators
Are time
And the elements
To which we abandon
Our edifices
So goes
All that we create
Into the delirium
Of age
And abuse
The long winter
Of our disobedient
Betrayal
