As stone
Of steepened cliffs and crawling caves
Aged through years of death
Immeasurably long without breath
Spears of rock and grinding tools
Striking to spark
To start a blaze
From greying mossy stone

As glass
Of colored windows and crooked lenses
Crystalline through light and dark
Smooth and shining the heart
Shards of ice
Piercing to glint
To slice apart
From shivering clear-lit glass

As iron
Of doubled swords and arcing spears
Sharp through flesh and bone
Cutting and wielded alone
Teeth of metal
Stabbing through arms
Through armor the same
From sharpened slippery steel

As diamond
Of binding rings and ancient crowns
Perfected through ashes and fire
Shattering stone, glass, iron
Jewels of jealousy
Adorning to please
To pierce through all things
From sparkling unbreakable gems
