Fossil
Fossil, lithified archive of archaic organic entities
the engraved vestiges of geologic deluge obscure
the petrified signature of fragile existence lost
the lineage weaved by the strands of evolution.
The broken life buried in sediments of strife
covered by the debris of crumbled time past.
Even before the grave is dug skeletal life’s relic
turns into forgotten fossil in the living world.
