Resourceful as a raging bull
N a China shop running full
Speed – 88 MPH like Marty
& Doc – smart as Spock
Vulcan rock N roll
Like obsidian & shoal
After the molten magma rose
Making mountains go “BTOOOM!” &
Letting lethal lava loose then
Running down like a goose
‘Til chillin’ out – so
Getting stoned
Igneous bone
Turning N’2
Something new
Metamorphic fork
Becoming sedimentary
Though only momentarily
Before being buried beneath
Deep enough to concede
To pressure & heat
Again becoming
Magma – meaning
Volcanos never run out
Of fire – like Me & my Desire

Moonwashed Weekly Prompt – Resourceful
Stunning and intriguing piece, Noah. I like the addition of the graph because it makes your piece all that more meaningful.

Thank you! It’s kind of a funny story. This was one of the lessons I helped teach at my job as a substitute, so it happened to be fresh on my mind. I randomly started rhyming about rocks, then just happened to have a new arsenal of rock facts to carry the flow, haha
