Nuts
and bolts
Cogs
Wheels
The
tiniest of threads
holding
everything together
creating
art
creating
wonder
creating
society
holding
the parts together
allowing
the world to grow
to
develop
to
advance
Nuts
and Bolts
cogs
driving the wheels
that
turn the key
in
unlocking the great wonders
of
the planet
the
great mysteries of the depth
Nuts
and bolts
little
nuts and bolts joined together
fused
in union
joined
in harmony
creating
existence
Building
the wonders of man
the
carbuncles that sprout
in
streets no longer
paved
in gold
but
in the sweat blood and tears of man
Broken
apart the nuts turn to rust
bolts
fall by the wayside
and
are lost in the quicksand
of
confusion
Cogs
that no longer turn, seize,
failing
to generate the power
required
to turn the wheels
the
world they built
the
art they created
Without
them the world is nothing
Nuts
Bolts
Cogs
Wheels
