Ascend
Stone steps arising in a niche.


Ascend

The secret stair between two bastions
compressed beneath the common notice
darkness draped upon the heights
uplifting thought to hidden spaces.

Stone steps arising from the humdrum
invitation offered by their arising
mystery upon their empty faces
destination veiled in every riser.
