Oil and Water


Look! The mountain drip slick with metal
Drip bullets drip bodies drip blood

Raw iron
Ironically 
Is unassuming at best
Silver hands in his pockets, eyes unfixed on everything in particular 
Even from here I can see that he is dreaming

But when finally is concentrate 
Would annihilate nations at the flick of his flint wrist.

From across the valley, clay dust scales the mountain’s peak
Bentonite drinks whole all that surrounds it.
It is parched of reason, brittle and breaking at every conjecture
A nonmalleable god fit for the furnace.

At a distance one could mistake the iron and the clay 
To be friendly— smug branches of the same vine 
Brothers even, a genetic clone of the other

But

Magnetize and magnify;
No, I mean really hold the weight of the mountain in the palm of your hand.
Do you see it?
How repulsed they feel by their own byproduct?

So clay says to iron, he says:
“If only I could purchase our final dissolution”

“Indeed. How many peoples would pay the price
For our disaster?” Iron smelt.

Iron smelt death closing in,
hooves of a white stallion 
reeked of their own free demise.
