Iron-heavy particles begin at the ground.
They don’t know where they’re going. Only that something in them wants upward.
As they rise — through red into orange into amber into gold into pale light into white — they cool. The iron stays in them. But it stops weighing.
This is what happens to a thing that was only ever extraction when you give it a different purpose. It doesn’t stop being what it is. It becomes what it was always capable of being.
Oklahoma has 22,000 abandoned oil wells. That’s not a liability. That’s a reservoir.
Built on the Vernal Equinox, March 22–23, 2026. The night the full vision was named.
