Four slats of discolored wood possess salmon streaks and steel

Blue parcels. They are equanimous and unmoving, although

Existing to provide a wise substrate. In this mountainous

Land, characterized by few algal assemblages and fungi Valleys, a mat finds a way to complete its synthesis.

The chartreuse green mat boasts a gradient of

Color and unexpected rigidity. In this scene, the algae

Moss complex exhibits depressions from the

Woody slats, which might take millennia to

Return to its original state.

Smoothed by the hands of a master crafter, a

Rubber-ficus brown bowl rests atop the upper

Plank, eclipsing portions of the chilled

Lake’s blueness. Two species of hardwood

Rest with one another, speaking of their

Forested days, with unconfined patches of Moss and Fungi.
