A grey carved totem pole
Faces outward to the sea.
A reminder of a stolen heritage.
...
Rising from the rot of ancestral decay.
Moss draped sunlit columns
Encircle the sanctum within.
...
Shades of pale; skin deep in camouflage.
She who's chameleon hues,
Conceal the sacrifice of self.
Shades of pale; virtues alien in despair.
