Crystals And Pedestals

Believers and non-believers collide
Where hope and bridges are built to unite 
Swords and blades sparring in stark, open side
Oil in flames devouring grounds that ignite.
Pillars and towers of creeds in graphite
Melting away like rhyolite of quartz
Freezing as ornaments, crystallized parts.
