The Collected Poems of Maud Pie

by Titanium Dragon

Understanding Rocks

Some ponies say
Rocks tell stories
But that is silly.
They are rocks.
Rocks don't talk.
But
If you know
How rocks smell
And how they
Look
And taste
You can
Learn a lot.
But the rocks
Don't teach you.
You teach
Yourself.
You have to
Because rocks
Don't know
Where they've been.

This is so deep it's practically bedrock.

But the rocks
Don't teach you.
You teach
Yourself.

I find this to be the most profound.

These poems are like rocks. They don't really teach you much. You teach yourself from what you read. You don't extract feelings and meaning from these poems. They're what you make of it from what you've read.
