Climbing out of Yourself

I think it would be a relief

to exit this old self

I've been dragging along

with its accretions of shells and stones like

Gaudi's Barcelona buildings.

 

Shazam! is what I need:

a Captain Marvel to penetrate

the walls of my prison.

 

I imagine the opening

and what will emerge.

It might be a fledgling thing,

a worm-like unformed entity ready

finally

to face it all.

 

Or it might be other than that.

Imagine if you will the powerful soul

that has (could have) developed in the secret dark

within the encrusted carapace

that was no prison

but a privileged private cocoon

of a growing space.

 

Imagine the strong radiant soul

that has (might have) grown within

and is now ready to appear.
