Summary

The website content is a poetic narrative exploring the lives and stories of various diamonds, personified as individuals with their own experiences and emotions, reflecting on themes of value, relationships, and betrayal.

Abstract

The narrative titled "Faces In A Rock" unfolds within a metaphorical cave of diamonds, each gem embodying a character with a unique tale. These stories range from a diamond that felt special after its owner's blood was shed to prevent theft, to a Princess-Cut diamond that became a symbol of its owner's personal growth and empowerment. The text delves into the emotional connections between the diamonds and their owners, highlighting moments of significance, such as a diamond that witnessed a betrayal and another that was part of a championship ring, only to be stolen. The diamonds, despite their brilliance and perceived permanence, are depicted as vessels for abandoned souls, suggesting a deeper commentary on the transient nature of value and the complexities of human experiences.

Opinions

The diamonds express a sense of pride and specialness in their roles and experiences with their owners, as seen in the Radiant piece's recollection of a thwarted theft.
The Princess-Cut diamond reflects a transformative influence on its owner, symbolizing a shift towards a more fulfilling and confident life.
The narrative conveys a sense of betrayal and the darker side of human nature, as evidenced by the story of VVS, the championship ring diamond, being stolen by the ex-partner of its owner.
There is an underlying theme of the impermanence of relationships and the silent witness of possessions to the lives of their owners.
The diamonds, while valuable and cherished, are ultimately depicted as passive objects, subject to the whims and fates of their human counterparts, highlighting the contrast between their eternal appearance and the fleeting nature of their ownership.

Faces In A Rock

Intrigue’s entry is a dark cave of diamonds

That shimmy and bling just enough to blind men

Characters on the wall

Telling the story of enchantment

How these diamonds came to be vessels for souls abandoned

[A Radiant piece says to another]

“This one time my owner got blood on me

Trying to keep me from getting stolen by his once good homie

Man I felt special that day

Shining brilliant in the bezel

The thief’s mom knew my owner’s mom

Tried to take me,

But my owner wouldn’t let him”

[A Princess-Cut says]

“Hey look me and my owner were like best friends

Before me she was alright

Something light dropping gems

But every single night she’s woozy by the kitchen light

Until an ad for me came to mind

Showing her life style isn’t right

Clicks the ad and orders

Tries me on at no major expense

Now it’s promotions, very special occasions and ignoring her ex’s text”

...Guess she figured...

When unblocking blessings

And speaking the right things into existence

Why give life to the pessimistic

*bloop, swipes down*

She says

“I’ll keep these good vibes alive thank you”

“You’re welcome,” says Princess Cut

“I can tell I boost you up..

Now I know I’m not that much

But I should do for now

I don’t know maybe you hold onto me for a while..”

And you know what she did

Traded me in for some brand new bling

Ain't that some sh..

Shh,

[ Another piece interrupts]

“Y'all hear that”

Oh that’s just VVS with the shine that disturbs the peace

Rumor is a team put him in a championship ring

Then went on to three-peat

Since then nobody could tell him nothing

See VVS he’s customized bling

Not no fortune ball

So people can see him

But he can not see it all

I just wish I could have told him

What I saw coming

His owner was only showing him

To get closer to this woman

See, she wasn’t cut quite like you princess

That woman did not have his best interest in mind

Owner let’s her hold VVS

And before you know it

They’re upstairs sharing flesh

Here comes her ex parked outside

A whole thief in disguise

Remembers the key under the flower pot

Unlocks just to find

The championship ring and all its engravings

VVS had helped his owner make a hundred fashion statements

But for all the light known to sight

Couldn’t scream for his owner to save him

In two nights time Retaliation is exacted

With no lives completely lost

They’re still here with us dancing

In a dark cave of diamonds

Vessels for souls abandoned
