Iron Fissure

Dry silt wedges beneath fingernails as a ceramic shard emerges from the dark soil. Its surface bears an oxidized iron fracture identical to the tomato's internal geometry, mirroring every previous rupture in stone and stem. This repetition suggests that force is less a sequence of events than a recurring imprint pressed into all matter. Such structural echoes imply that even growth follows a script written long ago, leaving only a quiet stillness where the pattern meets its end.
