MonumentsA Poem by mhylandsDefining an abstract entity Words can only envision the construct Establish the foundation of conception For the rise of a monument In accordance with the prophecy I carve stone to fashion the pillars Imbued with my will and soul An eternal legacy devised to endure the ages Forged by these hands, this ladder to the heavens The link by which I gain the command To cast out the gods and pierce through the shroud For the rise of a monument An immortal empire All within reach A black spire Absolute requiem I am the creator, constructing my own fate I am the maker, erecting the colossus Architect of an abstract destiny Absolving the institute that binds I no longer fear to cross the lines
