The clinking sounds of cranes metal chimes clang and clash and ping

zinc slabs fall

pouring molten metal into a slow bath. cuddling raw steel in a burning, fossilised embrace.

electric currents stimulate cocooning, solidification.

the audible hum of electric currents vibrate in mains hum.

as the current changes direction, stimulation of molten rock. Amalgamation

a protective layer forms liquid metal transform

conscious

through the blur of ash

fossilised into eternity.
