Oh Mystery
Crumpled wings emerge from a cracked and broken shell
A double coil unfurls as two separate parts bond into one
Legs, slender, strong,
grip leaf, stalk, stem,
hold on as movement threatens to dislodge you from your perch
You of delicate power and fragile strength;
so vulnerable, yet having survived such remarkable happenings:
not once, but twice re-formed.
::
Oh, Mystery!
Oh, Grand, Majestic Sight!
::
How did your body, plump and long, fit within that tiny jewel,
once jade, then black, finally transparent:
your home, your place of re-creation.
