Reformation of the Cut Makers


    Block.     A block.     One
    Beside another.     Distracted.
    Distracting.     A block.
    A block.     One atop
    Another.      Oppressing.
    Imprinted.     One,
    A Monet squinting
    At the other.     The Other,
    A dot.     Arranged
    As a puzzle.     A  photo
    Of the mountains
    From which another
    Descended.     In multiples
    Chipped from altars,
    Holy men ascended
    Whole.     Again,
    A block.
    A block.     Blocking out
    The sun behind
    A pyramid.     Always,
    A scion to the light.
    A render of lime.
    A block.    Built
    On the back
    Of bones.     Encased
    In them.     Refined
    And reformed.     Else,
    Then, is
    Nothing but stone.
