Mammoth Bones

By thndrhwk •
There is something about bones...
Lacy white skeletons
From before even dinosaurs,
Giants that dwarf even me.
But more than that,
There’s the Cenzoic Room.
Odder by far,
Are the bones you recognize;
Skeletal men armed with spears
Ambushing a Mammoth;
A battle as ancient as history itself,
A ritual, the toss of the die
Between tusks and spears,
Between life and this
The perpetual death.
There is something about bones...
