Break free of the chrysalis of time

Butterfly wings of impossible things

Butterflies cry

wings are broken

tangled with a form

after a swarm

born from the caterpillar

which melts away

after eating a vast amount of leaves

It’s reborn, form breathes

breaks free of the chrysalis of time

bells chime.
