Thirty Backwards Standing Figures


Day Twenty-Six


Intrigued by this installation by Magdalena Abakanowicz.



Here are thirty backwards standing figures
One becomes them all by only seeing
Thirty figures held apart by fissures
Witnessing is splitting into being

Take your due but ever be the giver
Be at peace through never-ending labour
Stay rocksteady while a flowing river
Call out wrong but never judge thy neighbour

Live a simple life of many faces
Draw-in air despite the hand that smothers
Be at home in many different places
Sleep with lies but hold the truths of others

Many selves, ashake in separation
Strive toward the sum of expectation
