Dark and quiet, no animals, just you. Ferns and leaves long brown beneath you, canopies above.
A trail of hard-working lace, intricate and purposeful, left like breadcrumbs in this forest so you can find your way home. Pieces of a vintage quilt you'll sew together one day.
Your hold your discovery in your mind, alchemist for a day, that day when you took red and blue away from purple and saw how it was made. The darkest mix of hot and cold, blood and truth.
Separate perhaps, at least for a time. You see now they were never apart.
How much blood does it take to get to the truth? Follow its river, study its stains.
