Episode 27:
Vs 1
Once I found life was living hard, too hard.
Seeming like things were going: start...restart.
I begin shuffling with the deck and building card on card.
At first struggling to keep my structure from coming apart.
Vs 2
Gravity defied—it named its own design.
Me hoping madly, as if this made it stand.
Implosive thoughts: could these bring it down?
Setting in tiers…balancing up off the ground.
Ch
From the deck of circumstance dealt my hand of cards.
Suits of notions, some of kinds: read like cards.
Forming stories (second on first and so on) with cards
In the balance: my life so far, a house of cards.

Vs 1 reprise
Gravity defied—it named its own design.
Vs 3
I shuffle and flipping stack up and up.
Each card contingent on the ones around it.
A pursuing breath could put to the test.
A breeze of despair could really do the rest.

Something sitting deep in me like feeling is saying:
“When steel girders and beams start twisting
And the bricks get to flying,
All well-founded structures go to toppling, lying
Something unseen is holding righted, is holding…
This house of cards of mine (it’s fine), never folding.”
Vs 4
Once I found life was living hard, too hard.
Seeming like things were going: start...restart.
Now I’m stacking grace on grace (card on card)
My structure is getting stronger with each pump of my heart.

In the balance: my life so far, a house of cards.
