communion 10

today, while the engineer tied knots
(i’m always impressed with all the things he learned

(which is an art installation, if you ask me
’cause i just have a thing for fabric
fluttering in the breeze)
i tied my own knot.
well, knots, actually
several of them,
taking Communion 10 from this:

when lisa call saw the “before”,
she said she kept wanting to
pull the blue swath down.

and now it feels more balanced.
anchored.
complete.
