fabric
raze
you
watch
a
wingless
worker
ant
carry
a
ragged
strand
of
fabric
twice
its
size
,
tangled
in
a
tendril
of
hair
that
must
have
fled
the
soft
prison
of
your
scalp
when
you
were
busy
kicking
at
the
carpet
in
the
heady
haze
of
morning
.
the
eusocial
insect
finds
a
way
to
wriggle
free
,
too
stubborn
to
surrender
to
despair
,
and
in
its
awkward
gait
you
see
yourself
:
one
small
soul
struggling
to
get
its
arms
around
something
so
much
bigger
than
its
body
.
