smooth-cut stone


if every moment is carved 

than  

I am a smooth-cut stone 

all the cuts are 
such furtive 
things 

like an inhale with moonlit breath 

steamy streaks of silver on black rock  

seen, but unnamed 

all to anonymous 

 into the dimness of shadow 


I am diminished in the ash of sadness 

hidden in prose  

at loss for a word   

hush now 

my cries only curse the silence  

tonight is lost to future moments 

 

 that only cleave the dreams in my heart

Thanks greatly Mr 9inety my friend afar for sharing

steamy streaks of silver 

Etchings makes rock shiver

Onslaught of the chisel

Banging of the hammer

A Masterpiece is born
