hatching. large and dark. a burgeoning ember in the frail filament of your
heart.
i sat down to try to welcome the knowledge and it just stood over me with
arms crossed. shaking its head.
of course it's self-righteous. it's the only one who truly deserves that priviledge.
so i sat while it looked on me with eyes like an ocean. constantly rising
and crashing. so loud. and hypnotic. wave after wave drilling me down.
i paddled as hard and as fast as i could. but my oars were just too small.
and my boat already had so many holes in it.
