i’ve always been fascinated

by all that comes full-circle

and then goes on to spin again

an extra coat of paint to seal it in

fractions like 4/3

i always need another layer just in case

to feel that edge of warmth

expertise, finesse

tearing apart if only to acquire

material to build it up again

i tried many paths, unbraided my brain

and in the process found a language

redoubling over until it’s second nature

until every thread connects

paving over, paving over

until every shred connects
