Lithic Truths

You cannot ignore my insuperable rock

That for the life of you

Can’t be imagined away

You can close your eyes feel your way

All you’re touching is but the monolith

You can scream and shout

But it will remain inert, mineraly

Silent yet emphatic, ominous yet innocent

It is what it is – despite your alchemy

Of misery, violence and acrimony

Banging your head against it in denial.

Cheung-Ling Wong
