Thunderdome Part 2 - The Contraption

 Yes, we have passed another huge work machine of some kind. This one is stranger than the one in my first Thunderdome post. I have no idea, it looks like something from a science-fiction movie. And it was HUGE!





A crank, a cog, a twist of string, 

A bell that chimes, a gear that sings. 

It whirs and clunks, then leaps with grace— 

A jumbled joy in motion's chase.

Built from scraps and dreams and lore, 

It opens wide imagination’s door.

Your words bring the machine to life like a mechanical beast born from myth and marvel.
