Flints
shapely like
the bones of ancient oxen
the bones of ancient oxen
Some no bigger than a thumb but
some more like the ball and socket
of a hip , sculpted
lumps found
buried in their bed
of snowy chalk

of snowy chalk
split they look like
gelatine but they take edges
hard as shark hearts
gelatine but they take edges
hard as shark hearts
from the void
