What Will Last

What Will Last


Vermiculate lichen patterns
Painting basalt.
Ornate canvas
Centuries in the waiting.

Chalky code
Mere hours old
J. G. + B. C.
What will last?

Stone will always
Outlast flesh.
It has always been,
But not so of love.

  1. I always seem to like the ones with Basalt. Must be too much Eastern WA in me.
