i pick a thread
from the webbing
between my fingers
draw it out and
become unraveled
forgetting how
to sew

  1. Oh, wow. I feel like this could mean so many things…forgetting how to be whole again…how to undo the damage done to ourselves…how do you say so much with so few words? You are so good at it!

    1. Lots of practice with both minimalism and the other end of the spectrum. My primary goal the past few years is trimming out the unnecessary in my poetry. One day I might succeed.

      🤔 Maybe I should apply that concept to my prose…
