It was her HOME; their
dining table was love
and exotic stories.
Years after she asked,
syllables of truth;
their ego grew like Ravana’s heads.
Suddenly the home erupted;
a xenolith of poison solidified.
She fell apart, xenocryst,
The home became
a xenolith-ian sin.
Written for dVerse Poets Pub -- Quadrille #255: X marks the spot

Ravana's heads -- Ravana is the ten-headed antagonist of the epic Ramayana.
