Made in a Creek of Cedar
Chapter 4 of 8
SMIvory

Hygroscopy or Annulment

Rain running down a pane

intersecting, dissecting at every possible moment

drops

Finally

A maelstrom:

forming a vortex, no a bridewell

singular orbs once glassy

Now placidly bonded in their personal

estuary

a chain and ball once worn with glee

now a memoir

of identities discarded

droplets & duties

crumpled and worn

Once tepid now sultry

bonded or broken

Hygroscopy or annulment
