Created more as
she is, alive, appearing resplendent,
Escaping her vertical prison, the beautiful painting,
A Sea Angel, a sculpture, releasing her, emerging,
Held by two dimensions no longer, free,
Bursting through the screen, the curtain,
As a stage actor speaking to the audience,
No longer held by the divide, the distance,
Not merely standing, posing only, reaching,
Now striving forward, outward, upward,
Crossing another plane of existence,
To come more fully alive…
A Sea Angel, a
merwoman, self-aware, conscious,
Her face obscured, hidden, not drawing attention,
Her supple body emerging, transcendent,
Her wings pulling outward, thrusting upward,
Her body pushing through the flatness, texture,
Yearning to live like Pinocchio, a human goddess,
To dance on this mortal coil, to move beyond,
Outside of two dimensions, her prison, her cocoon,
Her womb, gaining that third dimension, life,
Crossing another plane of existence,
To come more fully alive…
