Undoing

By Vijaya Sundaram
The thread unspools,
Rolls along the corridors,
Searches for a horned beast
Deep in the heart of a cave.
There is danger here
And deep thrill.
All the threads in all the spools
All the arteries and all the veins
All the nerves and all the sinews
Become one thread
Going inward, seeking the beast.
Follow that thread
And meet that beast.
And undo what makes you you.
This is what you were meant
To do from the moment you arrived
Here, all spooled and ready,
Perfectly formed, complete,
A miracle.
