Cut and rolled from the cloth of dreams

Stitched as an Intermediate being

Soak up the heat into my Butterfly

To radiate constant vigilance

Drink up sweat mud and nectar from blossom and rot

Daelan

How many worlds have you taken me into

How many worlds have i crossed, pollinated

Seeking sweet taste with my back claws

Seeking asylum in safer environments

Sometimes to the point of incarceration

A shadow of a butterfly

Turned into Butter to oil passages, pathologies, pathos, pathogens

Turned into butter

Flllly

Magical maintenance

An archway is an entrance without shadow

Through which i fly

Points of resistance scar into forms,

Into memories, churn into tiny scales forming the magnitude of my wing span

Reality is Flowerlike

In my private garden

If i stay light i can reach things which i normally couldn’t
