Doloroso
Rent from DeepDyve- Doloroso
Why one rock in the path is dampand other rocks around are dryis something of a mystery,like virgin statues than can cryor saintly hands that bleed from scars.Perhaps this kind of stone absorbsand sweats the moisture of the air.Or could the stone be deeper setand keep the cool of undersoil,the chill of earth, so long and wellthat condensation gathers onthe face exposed to summer heat.Therefore it is the depth and weightthat make this one stone weep, the sizethat mimics sadness of the wise.
