Question

Splitting time between heaven and earth.

Valueable lessons of telling worth.

A long time ago they were unsurmounted.

Scored before penmanship even was counted.

Codified simply, five fingers, two hands.

The closer to beam, increasing demands.

Start once again with this knowing jab.

A custom to stick, not intending to stab.

The truth simply hidden, revealed in this frame.

Now tell me please, of this subject, its name.

Dirt:

Scoring glyphs and marks on stone, before the coming of papyrus and paper

Having dirt on somebody lets you make demands

Before buildings it was unsurmounted.

You can tell time in layers of soil.

Clay pottery made with your two hands and ten fingers.

You can throw a rock, but mud sticks.

well, that's my last (and probably best, though still incorrect) answer for now

Sorry, no.
