Monolith -- for #worldpoetryday
Down he came, the Southern monolith

A dramatic end to old fashioned values.

For centuries he stood for folks to worship

Reminding me of a past I could only condemn.

Murderous, ruthless, hate-filled actions

Long over, yet clouding my vision, as smoke.
Through a haze of smoke

I strain to see what modern monolith

We could possibly erect to commemorate our actions.

Selfishness, greed, excess, are our values.

Who will my children grow up to condemn?

Will there be any ideals remaining for them to worship?
