Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear

Two tectonic plates sit in tension with one another, the one always pressing against the other. The pressure builds until something slips, and a violent reaction occurs. From this separation a seam is torn, and in its wake several other cracks, creating separate plates in tension with one another are formed. These plates are made of clay, and they are rigid because they are dry. But the plates can be restored in unity, the cracks can be sealed. Water will fall and the clay will once again become malleable. And at the hands of the potter the clay can be reformed into a single entity once again.
