Road Seem Dark

A little kitchen nook
Of you is cooking soup,
Stone soup, in fact, classic

Confidence, pretending
The main ingredient
Is the inedible.

The inedible stone
Settles at the bottom,
But here’s where the tale shifts—

The stone grows! Enchantment
Possessed it all along.
Be careful with the soup.

The stone at the bottom
Of what’s good is restless,
And there will be more stones.
