Buried Lithic Intent
Gritty limestone dust settles under fingernails as the spade strikes a fossilized seed pod embedded in unyielding bedrock. This subterranean geometry defies every recorded law of the estate, suggesting that even deliberate pruning follows grooves carved into weathered granite long before any hand arrived to guide it. Such an encounter forces a quiet recognition that labor might not be an act of will, but rather a rhythmic response to a heavy, electromagnetic hum vibrating through the soil.
