I came from the deep bowels of the earth
The objects of your covert
Withstanding the weight of the world
over centuries of time
Rigid and unwavering
I desist the changes you bring
Burning, chipping, electrocuting
In a stand-off to prove the determined
Yet from the fire I reborn
Taking different forms
To your delight.
I can be the brilliant ware that blinds your eyes
The backbone of your ambitions -
the buildings, the flying machines, the knives
that carves out your worlds,
so that you can reach the skies.
Impossible is nothing!
So long as your heart is willing,
to let me take you
further and further away
from my origin
in distance and in faith.
