Haikus from a photo with a lot of Depth.

 Today's dX Live Open Mic had this as the image prompt and the word prompt Depth:

natural sculpture

wind and water Gaia’s tools

Aided by Chronos

Parallel lines

Individual layers

Oceanic floor

It’s complicated

Intricate 3D printing

But I can make that

It withstands the sun

Oozing into weird shapes

Wondrous epoxy

See the rocks sliding?

Stymied geologic fun

Waiting for more rain

How far up is that?

Measure one layer’s height

Times a bazillion 

Erratic shadow

Movement across roiling arched

Compressed sediment

Office towers with

No windows fit the landscape

Do you see them?

I parachuted

Through the craggy gap

How do I get out?

Humans see faces

In unlikely places

Like that guy there

The wind catches sand

Which erodes more sandstone

Sandy frenemy

Capitalism

This layer sponsored by

A moneyed interest

Bacon-y looking

Ribbons of smoked pork meat

Maybe I’m hungry

Impressive rocks sure

but the cell service

Is terrible

Everything’s safe

So long as it doesn’t rain

Was that thunder?

Will Nature ever

Create a hole deep enough

To reach China?

How’d I get here? By

not asking for directions

After a wrong turn
