Chrysalid, Chrysalis, Crystal

 

Centrifugal force. Is censorship merely a decision? A/way of thinking. This way isn’t finished. Divide the page into sections, strata, layers of containment. Add texture, nuance, an opening here and there. Plywood, hardboard, a length of skirting. I am in the hallway having checked the door is closed. With me. In the atmosphere. The turn of a peg. A metre ticking over.

Check the back pocket. Loose change of the kind to be grateful for. Crimp and crave. A bone idol. Dissent disables disaster. Caves in. Bare threads. A tin of nails.
