Dark inside the cocoon

Trapped and bound

Inner chaos resists the constriction

Pushing continuously up against it’s walls

Till the cracks appear

And out of darkness 

Light appears

Metamorphosis has done its work

Its irreversible

There’s no turning back

The old womb has gone

The new creature is born

Out of this paradoxical dance

From death to life

Chaos to order

Glorious wings now spread out

Ascending higher 

Into the full glory of the light of the sun

While resting in the shade of the moon and stars
