Inktober 12: Fluid Solid

Fluid Solid

Falling stars and leaves and woes

Leave a trace of where they go

Under rocks some crawlers dwell

It’s a long way up from Hell. I

Doubt they’re unburnt when they weld

In grade school we learned that glass is not exactly a solid. The teacher called it Amorphous. It can be thought of as a really slow-flowing liquid.

Sand, from which glass is made, seems liquid when it is poured.

The same word that Glass came from also led to the word Glacier. Thus language flows.
