Breathing In The Past

Inspired by Sadje’s What do you see #111

an open courtyard beckons
and images of servants
gathering water fill my senses

i imagine nobles walking along
on the second floor, under the arches
deep in conversation

i wonder
was the highest tower
filled with prisoners

was it thieves trying to get in
or enemies of the court
from within this gated community
