now gone, expired, and what
is left to be found
by those who remain
to assume or infer importance
and intentions in a pile here
or a collection there. perhaps
it was nothing or perhaps
the object of much thought
or even an indication
of grandiose plans and
designs now lost and
left to us to speculate
and change and discard.
