There is nothing to grieve.
There is just silence.
Row upon row of empty houses
From here to the horizon.
Carrion crows wheel in the dawn light
Like a carnival high wire act.
But there is nothing to see,
Nothing on which they can feed.
Just the abandoned remnants
Of a lost civilisation, decaying.

Love these lines~

We come with nothing but our own skins when we get here, so, naturally, we take, nothing, but the skins we are in, when we, go too…
