Rocks

rolling stones gather no moss
smoothness facilitates motion
adaptability to different terrains
nominates them for victory

static rocks acquire character
-are worshiped
for history they support
-till they forget 
worlds beyond 

their compressed energy
suffocates - unaware that 
release is possible
they can live again…
