At an Impasse
Stones do not give
To go against the ground
Roots rebel
Where silence dwells
Under stone and dirt
The dirt cries pain
Shifting aches
Earthen quakes
Her foundation shakes
But no sound
The stones mute
though the cries carry on.
Stones do not give.
Roots seek life continued
But mercy sought
Is not mercy given
An impasse imposed
A re-route
A choice
To go against the ground
Or to find a way around.
The stones do not give.
