. red thread .
we did not know the red thread of fate, tied readily .
tied with inevitable red or ****** rags again.
a meditation on thread, mediation of red, i dream of you.
clearly your clothes remain the same, worn, washed,
pressed.
your ideas come different.
be well in your mending, despite the pain, raddled cotton .
pin to hold life again.
The two people connected by the red thread are destined , regardless of time, place, or circumstances. This magical cord may stretch or tangle, but never break. This myth is similar to the Western concept of soulmates or a destined flame.
(notes for Morrigan, May the first cabinet be locked, the second also, yet leaving the red key in, please?)
Room Two.
. Bound.
comfort bound in clean linen.
arises with perfume, an uncertain memory.
what else will you expect of me . that, mis spellings or rags.
you see, i say it means nothing. leather bound, broken, words lost
in boxes.
notes.
:: bound ::
tied; in bonds: a bound prisoner.
3.
made fast as if by a band or bond: She is bound to her family.
4.
secured within a cover, as a book.
5.
under a legal or moral obligation: He is bound by the terms of the contract.
6.
destined; sure; certain: It is bound to happen.
Room Three.
.Crossing.
carefully you drew crosses on my skin. i looked at you ‘ kisses?’ no, you said, crosses……
notes.
i have been asked about secrets, secrets, that I should not tell, and I tell you that I have been kissed truly kissed, and the tear tore my face, a water stripe, dipped in agony and love for you that must be a secret you said, you said, so I will write it here and print it, and print it, and dip it in wax, the kiss.i have been asked
Room Four.
. Stitching.
i have done this, when all else are asleep,
stitching, thinking, listening to the rain.
then the voices stopped.
cover the surface . that stitching can be
rhythmic,
and never mind the capitals. clever words
confound.
the littled dress sewn quietly with love.
we have many more rooms to describe…….
