Meg with Eva
Because she needed
to lose the memories
to make a clean start …
Because of the instinct
to get out of her own way,
to trust Fate
to become something Other …
Because nothing was hers
to cling to ~ not really…
Except the hair and the ponies
and the intensity of the Mom-bond.
She chose to fly ~
not away from, but toward.
With the herd gathered
and a child in each hand,
she leapt forward into the Void.
And she left the hair behind.
