Time Wipes Away All Glory Poem by Philo Poesie

Time Wipes Away All Glory

.
Where once
mighty city walls stood
today the wind blows lonely
over sand dunes of weathered stones
and where
kings immortalized themselves
in dusty history books
that no one reads anymore
and
heroes were acclaimed
whose glorious names
have long since sunk into oblivion
-
glory is now only
a reverently exhaled breath
over ruins and bones
.
