“Small Reveals” is part of a series revealing the life of Rapunzel.
She was more than hair and singing from a tower window.
Come, read how she untangled her life and found meaning in her isolation.
Small Reveals
Eye-shaped apple seed
Wind-whispered birch leaf
Sun-polished beetle back
Shadow-tinted dove feather
Sun-stained mouse bone
Ghost-stitched spider thread
Angel-dropped dust mote
I plead to each
Their secrets of entry to guide me
Out of this locked room
