Geolology

Very little geology, mostly bad riddles and doodles My favorite dinosaur is diplodocus

Blue claystone that comes off in the photo as grey

[benthegeolologist]

Forgot the scale, forgot I was covering it in half shadow in the joy of aesthetic appreciation of the rock. Like a little flame cut off at the tip

[benthegeolologist]

Gnarly branch end

[learndirt]

Like any living thing, the soil must be fed.

[benthegeolologist]

A riddle like an Erysimum

I envelope the inside

Like a reversed hide

I can start anywhere

If I don't, notice there

The antagonist of bare

I used to bond by mare

[benthegeolologist]

Granite Boulders near Lake Azalea above Donner Pass

[benthegeolologist]

A riddle to take slow

Clad in armor unyielding

Slaying the sword wielding.

Marginal minute might

towering over knight.

In the one there are here twain sexes.

Monks' doodles, result in scholars' vexes.

Medieval Marginalia Snails

A solution that hardly fails

Just before dusk

[benthegeolologist]

Not quite felty but its pleasant to look at less oriented crystals sometimes

[benthegeolologist]

A single yellow flower

[benthegeolologist]

Possibly a strangler fig, maybe just a tree hugging another tree

[benthegeolologist]

From the sky like a bird clouds are particularly fluffy

[benthegeolologist]

Bismarckian riddle

Seuss’s third

Not a bird

Or ruby on Lady’s finger

On this evidence I linger

through the smoke

and brine I choke

Give to this thing

What’s due to a _ _ _  _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Sacramento has odd little bits of street art here and there, I passed thru a while back

[benthegeolologist]

Rock cleavage orthogonal to the strata in a river

[benthegeolologist]

Dusk on the road

[benthegeolologist]

No Queen is red herring

We played a game of fairy chess

Upon a sandy plane, a mess

I lost a little and lost a lot

I found myself a Ferz, aghast!

A faerie borrowed body

Taken fair for fare- ante

Passing liege and carts before the horse

Fought a battle staid and stayed course

A farther four further went

I hid, breaking rules unbent

Like lake without a cee

Beyond promotion by a See

We later look on imaginings

Try to remember lost things

Where did this piece, rare today,

Hide out and hid away?
