Mining Mines


Pause quickly the world

Gravity rudes heaven’s tears

Force pressures weak creations

Trimming a mockingbird’s years.

 

Pause quickly the world

Rain’s mercy left too mocked

Oppressing the generations new

Leaving the broken veil blocked.

 

Pause quickly the world

Faustians bargain Nature’s cheer

Hollowed men dig hollowingly

Swelling round an entropic sphere.
