Obelisk

It is an Unaligned card in the Deck of Dragons.

'Beyond these thin hide walls

a child sits, before her on worn silk

a Deck is arrayed.

She cannot yet speak

and the scenes before her

she’s never before seen in this life.

The child gazes upon a lone card

named Obelisk, the stone grey

she can feel its roughness in her mind.

Obelisk stands buried in a grassy knoll

like a knuckle protruded

from the earth, past and future.

This child’s eyes are wide

with terror, for cracks have appeared

in the stone of stones and she knows

the shattering is begun.
