Graphite

Carbon shadows linger
in cracks of limestone
filament.

Remnants etched
from lives passed;
lived well but short.

Fleeting yet forever told
in graphite stories.

Look well, look hard;
Secrets are unveiled
in mundane guise, forever lost
by momentary distraction.

All is not as it seems.....
