“instruments for life/ruin”

erase the Earth’s shell and you’ve got building blocks,

coloring users’ hands with power,

leftovers of forgotten structures and

instruments for life/ruin.

passively do such blocks assemble, their blueprints

so eclipsed by the sovereigns’ wonts,

evermore reducible/never reconstructive of the same fleeting whole.
