symmetry

through the arch

deeper than under the deepest sea, uncovered

still

solid

cold and contained

a secret

a question

bm.

step by step
but it started with a crawl
really, just a reach
or a blink

a flash, a pattern starting
when does a pattern become a pattern?
when do you become a you and start to untangle the cobwebs

the cobwebs you woke up to, clouding your eyes
the cobwebs that trapped you, wrapping around you

ms. spider edges forward
fangs extended

journey

the forest

and the sea

a little girl

hiding in a tree

what bird hatches

and takes flight

what fire-breathing monster

turns a head to look and see

they come from the west

they come to me
