Nesting Dolls

CAPO 7

Little nesting dolls
Don’t you wonder how
We got here?

While you’re tucked away
Just under my ribcage
All these years
And it’s still not clear

What’s at the bottom of me
And everything I once believed
Get to the bottom of me
My own infinity

My little nesting dolls
So much further down
I’ll find me

The original
Beneath these hollow bones
Is hiding
And I’m trying

To find the bottom of me
Whatever it might mean
Get to the bottom of me
My own infinity

And every time I open up
Another novelty wears off
I’ll chase the spiral to the core

And if I know I’m not my thoughts
Not who I was or may become
I wonder what I’m looking for

Little nesting dolls
How did I fit them all
Inside me

A recurring theme
On every face beneath
So tiny
Unwinding
