Chimera
firm
structure defined
defies betrayal
survival tested
shape is set
ligatures bound
veins fractalled
but ordered
pattern programmed
by bone and fibre
cartilage and cellulose
an antediluvian code
the paradigm prime
transcribed
chronicled
in clay
distilled in oil
dissolved in fumes
iconoclasts
disqualified or extinct
banished and fossilized
revolution
diversity
realized
in embryonic fluctuation
seedling recombination
one gestational realm
shared by two
but not for long
an ovum
hostile takeover
sister against sister
survival of the fittest
accommodation of the weak
granted in genetic symbioses
the dark passenger
the absorbed and oppressed
makes her presence known
in technicolor
cultured colonization

I cannot imagine what it is like to live in your brain as you are formulating these pieces of art.
The images are hard to take my eyes off of them.
Unfailing beauty.
Thank you, Lovely. ❤️
Thank you, Denise. Just looking for new connections and words. The plant some botanist or nature herself takes credit for:)
I hear you. It has gotten quiet again. Must be the weather.
