string
belly fire
The
untying
of
the
string
was
like
an
end
to
the
friendship
;
the
undoing
of
what
could
have
hoped
to
be
timeless.
Now
it
appeared
as
it
truly
was
- possessing
both
a
beginning
and
an
end
.
When
bound
together
its
frey
was
sealed
in
the
sticky, waxy leather;
a
knot
so
tight
it
could
not
be
forced
, seemingly.
With
persistance, however,
with
purposeful deed
the
ends
came
away
at
last
and
were
revealed
...still bearing
the
mark
of
their
once
so
steadfast
union.

The
middle
one
asked
me
about
the
string.
Holds
it
down
,
I
say
.
He
paused,
then
quizzed:
But
don’t
we
want
it
to
fly
?
Yes
we
do
I
said
.
Yes
we
do
.
