abandoned mont sainte michel

when cavern walls and sandpaper jetties
lose mass and weight, and july fourth
has less value than before, when the graves
of thirty-thousand are just
memories of a hopeful time
i hoped you would write to me
a letter, a single word. crass, unedited
but existent.
when the values we created and the
morals we share disappear i will know
even if you shove it down again

you lied to me
you all lied to me
