(I)
I became
stone inlaid
concrete part
of building us up
but I ask
for my half
my spirit is trapped inside
we are separated
by stone thats fake
by something that has no face
although created by
our hands
the way of the stone
was the way of a man
Ignored the teasing
ignored the hurt
build up the shield upon the hearth
protect all that is true
the way of the stone
is the way for you
I silence
born in fire
icy pinnacles
forest monster
(II)
Start but don’t
realize whats not
a gaze of a basilisk
medusas assumes
and you are immune
to her fast gaze
store inside you
all around you
the heavy rain that falls
those who walk on you
creep besides you
examine inside your hart
we are separated
by stone thats fake
by something that has no faith
berried beneath me
are those of ages past
and I will outlast
all your enemies and all your friends
as I am stone
and who may never end
(III)
I am beneath
A great tree
and on me it is written
nothing that can makes sense to you
nothing that you understand
nothing that has a means or ends
nothing that speaks of wisdom
the only
words
that you
can see
are those of those
who came after me
perhaps they are
writing on my surface
I store forever
mysteries of knowledge
but only I know truth
and that is enough to make
you realize that you cannot contain
the power that comes from
the way of the stone
(IV)
A stone
dreams forever
lost like a feather
fallen on the ground
marked on me from
ages past
and you dig me up
and find me
bring me to light
so that you can take a closer look
at what I have preserved
notice how its not at all
like anything else
you ever observed
natures call is natures beckon
the stone realizes that she
is not going to bring us reckon
she is the life
that makes it worth while
being a stone on a slippery isle
(V)
I
watch
I
wait
I
see a glance
a glacier comes across me
tears me a part
the wind erodes me
moss corrodes me
the monkeys use me as a tool
and even make more of me
if you think
that I am divine
you are sadly wrong
only a part
of a longer path
does a stones way know
my body is a mystery to all
and worth exploring
but as all have seen
and all may find that
I am only that thing
we can’t decide
the unknown knows and at last
you will discover that the way of the stone
is a part of everyones path
