My Covering

Visible a rupture in my covering
I comb through it!
Anticipating a duration to take it off
My crown.

When the time is absolute.
I will creep up from my
Crouched fetal position
Willingly and safely let my
crown emmerge out!
Then I will allow for the rest to
tumble down gently down twords
My feet!

Then I will be cleansed!
cleansed from all things that existed
Taunting me from my deceased.
My thick wall will be assembled.
Assembled for all disabled things
Then I will be ablebodied to live!
I will no longer have need my covering.
