Fossil

Locked under the weight of ages
time seals complete
a memory of something
disguised by heavy matter.
Then, found and cracked
the core unlocks, revealing
two solitary places:
A hollow sound which brims
empty with treasure
and a truly real impression
unfathomable to the eye.

Cicadas come out every 14 years because they remember why they went underground, or to a blog suitcase in the sky.
