I stand mesmerized... the beauty within its walls
coarse, ragged and asymmetrical pieces of rocks enthralls
centuries and centuries of affluent history echoes within its enormity
a witness to the blood and sweat that dripped from its imposed sovereignty.
As if awakened by the flash of my digital contraption,
sculpted beings commence breathing life etched in unyielding stone
Petrifying... like the raging waters of a raging river;
inciting fear and awe along with the message it delivers.
Of sacrifice and submission, that of grief and strife
the pure beauty of the creation of a peaceful life
of the generations that passed as time drifted past
for the memories were meant to forever last.
