Lithic Gaze
Rough limestone grits against a thumbprint as the sediment parts to reveal a calcified visage mirroring your own features. Tracing the brow's tectonic ridges, you find where deep pressure once shaped thought into heavy, violet-hued certainties. This serrated fracture between what was endured and what is felt suggests that identity rests upon these staggered boundaries of ancient weight. In this quiet moment, the distinction between the stone and the skin finally dissolves.
