They say jungles are chaotic.
I find them as silent
As the world that is aquatic...
Though no less violent.
Jungle [Common Meter]

granite bubbled out of the jungle, and - upon it - they built a temple its walls were anchored into stone until its walls were the hill, and the hill was its walls and no one could find one true point at which one ended & the other began was it built to be closer to the heavens, or further from hell? not by people for whom heaven & hell reside in the mind -- unattainable by velocity, inescapable by distance -- constant traveling companions only confronted head-on maybe they wanted it to feel permanent, knowing even that granite would crumble in due time

jungle engulfs,
swallows, and digests
once proud buildings
