swirling under the surface, latching onto nothing, encased in a clear soft shell
gray, silver liquid flowing

 

gray, black words,

big, beautiful words
slowly pouring cement, soft and grainy like wet sand
slowly, slowly, slowly

 

gray, silver liquid solidifying

gray and black cement slowing the flow
solidifying, solidifying, solidifying

 

clay covered hands cupping the capsule

smoothing, holding, filling with intention
solidifying, solidifying, solidifying
solid

 

allowing the pain to form

allowing it to become rock solid
allowing the pain to be
without judgement, with love, with love, with love
solid
