13 Metamorphosis
The Returning -- Coming home is never the same as staying there. I am exhausted, shocked to find myself truly home, surprised to find that my time away is over. Thrown into the paradox there is a threshold before me and I am reluctant to cross it. Who will I be on the other side? Will I take this newborn creature with me? I am older, wiser, and ready to begin again. The end is the beginning. I step forward and through. The ogham fid is Ailm for epiphany and inception.

lyrics

METAMORPHOSIS // metamorphosis between sisters / in a multiverse of bliss and of blisters / here’s the one life where she kissed her / and here’s the one where she’s a mister / cataloguing this metamorphosis / navigating this metamorphosis // abolitionist by ellipsis / in an absolute of ships and eclipses / here’s the one path where she slips in / and here’s the one where she’s a victim / invocating this abolitionist / advocating this abolitionist // parting veils and summer hail / become the threshold home / bleeding hearts while all depart / belie and espy / the journey back to I // photosynthesis catechism / in a feral sun to cell cataclysm / here’s the one breath where she’s rhythm / and here’s the one where she’s a prism / scintillating this photosynthesis / underwriting this photosynthesis // parting veils and summer hail / become the threshold home / bleeding hearts while all depart / belie and espy / the journey back to I // coming back to this metamorphosis / welcome home to this metamorphosis //
