You're better when you're angry.

I was, if anything, dissapointed in the disinterest of the press.
Considering the determination to capture the prescision of construction,
the destruction of these landmarks went basically unnoticed.
For months before the end, the towers announced the gossip fumingin the people's mouths.
Two castles, one kingdom, built in perfect symmetry.
From across the countryside, these two windows sought each other
those hand crafted arches aching from proximity.

The intial attack was expected, although the aftermath inescapable.
kings and kinsmen inthe heat of early morning warfare.
Those defending their territory stood on ground as familiar as enemy.
Where once there was beautiful symmetry and unsporken reflection
now there are half-destroyed echoes
reverberating through the corridors of
my well-walked and brutally raped
fortress hallways.
