The Caterpillar is a change poem, a reflection on how every butterfly was once a caterpillar, cocooned and ugly, hidden and alone, yet destined for flights of fancy.
The Caterpillar
overthinking butterflies
overeating leaves
overspending silk
overfilling fat
overplaying birdsong
overcrowding time
overthrowing light
overstaying darkness
overdo cocooning
understating light
underestimating wings
undercutting shelter
underpinning eruption
undermining cocoon
understanding butterflies
finally
fit to
fly
