Petrified Logic

Iron-cold conduits lie buried beneath fractured slate and layers of silt, their rigid geometry forcing an artificial order upon the shifting earth. To touch these calcified veins is to feel the weight of an old intent that once dictated how every drop must travel. Beneath the debris, pruned branches and discarded petals accumulate around this metal skeleton, marking where natural growth met a heavy-handed design. One might choose to follow this ancient blueprint or dismantle its grip, finally allowing the soil to breathe in its own unscripted rhythm.
