The Fold

I enter the writhing mass. All limbs.
Elbows, shoulders, ankles. Tangling. Folding over one another.
The parts melting into one another. Where do I end? Where do they all begin? What parts are mine?
I am lost in that sea of limbs. I am part of it. I am folded. Bones bend and blend.
I smear. I am lost.
Am I part of someone else?
Am I lost? My pieces are here. Scattered and disappearing like ash into sand.
Like paint swirling into brown.
Like a rainbow layering into white.
The warmth draws me back together. Slowly.
I'm cradled.....
reassembled by so many skilled hands.
I was never incomplete?
Were you?
