Cocoon
I'll stay within my womb for a while.
Outside winds blow winter past autumnal trees-
leaves, blown into frenzies,
change because of a retracting sun.
To stay, to become-
To stay.
Warm within.
Outside will make you yield!
Wisdom's composer awaits me,
and will rely on the breath of my hearing.
Deep crescendos of bliss-
life's notes sculpt worth out of a living tree's lifeless limbs.
From a grain of mahogany.
Chisel Chrysalis
to a smooth surface,
the new skin of creation.
I breathe my liquid air,
and listen to its current
fill this space,
until-
Life,
forces me from this cocoon to the next.
-Sophie Klep
