Copper

Jordan Kost

Valued at only 1 cent.

It’s reminiscent of warm autumn days, which lay in its base.

Its glittering is the deflector of destruction and the sign of a warrior.

Its sounds can be a deep bellow that rattles our ribs,

or the chimes of a song bird that itches our ears.

It tells the fables to old men, which are passed on again and again.

It can be beaten and hidden,

but regardless it impresses.

It’s redolent of determination, accompanied with rich hints of earth.

All valued at 1 cent.
