One summer a few years ago, I stood for hours observing a cicada on a leaf emerge from its soft egg-like sac then become a fully-formed miracle. But my curiosity also made me realize the absolute fragility of its formative life while I stood and watched, the power I had then to disturb and overcome it; and I thought about the absolute fragility of all life in general.

FINAL ECDYSIS OF THE IMMATURE INSTARS
A pale and soft-bodied callow emerges. The anthropod discards its old cover, the exoskeleton, facing silicone, its teeth on brick and bone; and eager to reject its challenging past at last; but the past remains, entwined with time, the past remains entwined in me, burned in the shadows of the hour, of every hour—
And time will tell its own story, time foils the dark mirrors, and cataracts bleed with memory.
