GLADIATOR

A coliseum warrior,
his only verve,
Catapults grizzled moments,
continuing swerve.
Mighty, fearless,
Assembled and brave,

Old saggy roofs flash through my mind,
Buildings of love; pierce pass me in time.
I can't see faces, not even traces,
Just memories a stranger erases.
Where drift of life once passed and laid,
Behind every closed and open shade.
How many...
