Ground Into Earth


A rock may weather

 

tough as nails

 

be eroded by time -

wouldn’t hear a train passing

being skipped

little angel

 

ripples tearing

a little chubby,

cracked

we play a runawaygame,

wind crumbled

 

try more often

ground into earth

I know

sand is still useful

  get better-good luck

rock has the same

with dust of old stars

chemical formula always

tough as nails

mountains shed
