the knottiest path

heart-shaped leaf and concrete (I took the pciture)

Tomorrow the knottiest path begins
The signed one
The known one.
You have to get prepared
Sharpen your smile
So that the knife will hurt less,
Trust the invisible
In the certainty that
Solitude fails.
Tomorrow the knottiest path begins
Make hast and consume
Swallow things
To make room for other verbs:
Abandon,
Do without,
Bring a baby to the centre of your heart.
