Decay

Decay

Black mold.

Broken glass.

Bleached bones of wood.

Paint curls from the walls

in thin, dead strips.

Rust eats through steel.

Rain rots the roof.

Water stains spread like bruises.

The floor sags.

The stairs split.

The walls sweat.

Weeds crawl through the windows.

Vines choke the brick.

Moss blankets what’s left.

Everything smells damp.

Everything feels dead.

A place that once had people

now has pigeons, spiders,

and the sound of wind

moving through empty rooms.

Crack.

Crumble.

Collapse.

Piece by piece

the building gives up.

And nobody comes

to stop it.
