Puzzled

finger painting with acrylic, gesso, collage on gesso texture (decalcomanie) on w/c paper, 10 X 11″

I am a puzzle with scattered pieces. On days when I cast my pieces up, I hope they won’t descend too quickly and pray for the weightlessness to last, that liberation of owning no shape, no name, no story.

 

My fear is that one day my pieces might find their way into some interlocking finished puzzle picture and trap me there where I no longer fit. . .
