Hardening Wax

The singed wick and the tacky drag of cooling lipids against skin mark a sudden shift into more difficult terrain.

These geometric incisions through irregular matter suggest that even in resistance, our actions carve a structural destiny. The somatic struggle to shape what refuses to yield settles into its own precise architecture.
