A Castle Once Stood
-----------------------
The weathered dirt, sparse, still memorializes the blood once shed;
Meshed with the labors of war and famine the cobblestone was bred;
Besieged with esoteric desire and greed, the commonwealth fell, dead.

The mountains refract shades of stone to the children of midnight;
They wisp through that sunken valley of the many a forsaken knight,
without a whisper, a word, just the murmurs of dolomite.

A skeleton crew resides within the fragmented halls that once bore purpose to many, binding a cruel facade of unity;
Tho', even then, the Castle barely willed its corpse ridden community.

Just like its power that once was, its ruins shift and crumble into the same beast called, humanity.
