runes

 runes

and now the ruins have arrived

in lately eyes upon these times 

torrid being the pandemic word

that best describe these times

we used to come as kids to the ruins

but there is no hope now for play it seems

for the memes in the fountain are rueing 

over what best describe these times

for it is a bombers moon that climbs

silver under the boys flight feet

for no longer can we meet

to blast these blasted times 

for even the ruins are ruined

where they were once pastimes

now they are in rusting derelict

mistrusting over time’s deep mines
