(title?) (help me out people)
Tumbling, shale over flint,
Granite for a bed,
Set over an orbiting furnace
Stone ledges leapt into the skies,
Soaring o’er the ages,
As nothing else can fly through time,
So slow and sure,
That nought deflects their course,
Excepting just the very wind and rain,
Whose constant tribulations will make vain,
The highest climbing mountain peaks of earth,
They casually erode these errant bluffs,
Deferring stone to dust and girth for dearth,
Tumbling ever more into a plain,
That which has risen,
And may yet rise again.

cosmic forge. or you could do the time tested “just use the first line.”
Glad to see you are still writing. I will be back up and posting soon, the store finally is getting to where I can think of other things.
By the way, read a book about a chess match by Steffan Zweig, I can’t recommend it highly enough, the first book in a long time to light my brain on fire.

Great piece, nice flow as always! Really an interesting topic that I think can be interpreted to represent many aspects of life.

I can’t think of a title but I really liked it.It has power and poetry in it, a good combo.
