chrysalis

Published on 24 Jan 202225 Feb 2022 by Laura Bloomsbury71 Comments
listless as winter
but conker-brown
polished too

stretched taut
etched so fine
so ineffable

small sneaky fingers
feeling for being
a writhe, a wriggle

more inertia.
The wait.
impatient

for wonderment
that crack, that one
convulsive shiver

Behold!
a bold winged creature
stepping out

Just 44 words for Merril’s quadrille: Shiver
