Tomb Guardian

Michael Angerman

Tomb Guardian

granite body entombs
in appearance
a commoner
lining the avenue
home to a resting place
box hat filled with mysteries
explore
contemplate
where I have been

Peggy Castro

Oh tomb guardian
with all your propriety
go away
let me be
with the dancing spirits
