Stones Ugly Desire

Garnets, not rubies, stones ugly desire.

Wealth amassed in consumptions fire.

Grim nuisances whisper unto mans behest.

Parlaying his soul in blind mans quest.

Vessels of clay, bones lain.

Unto dust earth reclaims.

Garnets, not rubies, stones ugly desire.

Many yearn for prosperity and greed is the stones middle names. IT is true we are not to worship or love or claim the jewels for they too will amount to nothing in the end.
powerful message here J Allen....

Much respect,
Joselyn

I wonder where those nuisanced whispers come from...?
...maybe the ugly stones themselves? or the desire to feel consumed by prosperity?
Great write in that so many images, and thoughts come to mind!
Love and Peace~

Exceptional write that conjures up all kinds of images, almost like an ancient wizard's chant.
