I can't trace the crown of my indifference towards you (or anyone else) to a definitive source. Whether you are strung to me or I to you, our union imports several interpretations.
You might be like fishing wire: binding limbs, constricting movement; if I deviate, I suffer your sharp cut of resistance.
Maybe you're yarn: soft, nurturing; but again, any move that falls outside the lines of your predicated design--any undue tightening or loose end--results in chaos.
Or perhaps you are the hand that draws the line: you, the invisible puppeteer who governs my every wayward glance or dishonest act at the whim of your object, your desire; one string leads to the magnetism of your cologne and another, the heat of your knees in fitted jeans against mine. If it be that, then, my indifference would serve as my aide, a final desperate cling to autonomy.
But what if we were both cast in the same web, rendered useless through entanglement, would we claw towards each other, content though the silk grows thick with every reach? Would we tear our way to liberty? Or if we were to find that thing- the source- and cut all ties, would magnetism wind us up again?
If I unravel, what would you do? If you unravel, would I leave you in a pile at my feet? Would I cast dead strings aside and embrace the freshness- raw and bleeding but alive- beneath the rage?
