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