The excavation of self is really a kind of anthropology, endlessly intriguing
Bones, maybe memories, but armatures for new structures
maybe velvet-maybe pearlescent-maybe mauve and plum.
Mauve armor.
Hollow bird bones, maybe liberation.
Once I slept on sea stone, actually many times.
They felt like anchors and I still feel them in my bones, warm landscapes leaning against my hips. I think of them all the time.

Snakeskins too, freedom from ancient stories

emerald stone talismanbones.
Iron from meteorites-ancestral defense.
Stararmorbones.
Lamplit vessels inner worlds
star armor bones- stairways to that dimension, this dimension other ones.
Maybe the future is glowing feather bones- their velvet capes treescapes
Bones, maybe velvet
maybe magenta.
And mauve.
