opening up the channel
for an origin story to arrive
plucking out strains of
shame and misogyny
trying to sneak their way in
loving on the leaves
whose veins show paths for
repairing harm
making a way
out of the hole of being
mistaken
lost
temporarily cruel
searching for the conflict
that is a thick mud
for roots to strain against
to give the story heft and weight
and an arc of something
divinely grounded to end on
deep deep recipe <3
