Inside a world unknown to me
Unfamiliar, as religion
Unfamiliar, as culture
Mystery, riddle, enigma
Intricate details
Inlaid in stone walls
Indicate a beauty
And subtlety
Beckoning exploration
Intricate details
Inlaid in stone walls
Indicate a beauty
And subtlety
Beckoning exploration
So I settled in
To setup the shot
When a little girl
Ran through it
So I fell in love
With her too
All the lines
Are precise
And pristine
As to seem
An architect’s model
Atop his desk
Then I notice
The tiny figures
Taking photos and selfies
In your presence
I deliver myself
To your mysteries
In the day
This hulking grey
With windows dark
And broken glass
At night transforms
Bathed in warmth
A dinosaur preserve
In translucent amber
Often
That is enough
To learn the nature of darkness
So I may seek the source
Beyond the world I know
Arc vs line
Hard vs Supple
Crooked as a fish hook
Straight as an arrow
The well-trodden path
The less-travelled fork
