to whom it may concern

in the dead stones of a planet

no longer remembered as earth

may he decipher this opaque hieroglyph

perform an archaeology of soul

on these precious fragments

all that remains of our vanished days

here - at the sea's edge

I have planted a stony garden

dragon tooth dolmen spring up

to defend the porch

steadfast warriors
