Write Yellow

the yolk like expectation; write separation as metaphor.  Two can be more useful than one. Write divide.  Write discrete.  Write an egg so obvious: an island encircled by the viscous sea, calcium reef; write core, mantle, crust. Write the anticipated breaking or cracking on the bowl’s hard rim. Write the sentimental chicken mourning, write the motif of grief. Write then, of stars and the moon so round, write to procedure; write I am so lonely without you. O, the past of least resistance.
