KNOT

KNOT

A spoken word piece that emerged from a late-night stream of consciousness, exploring how certain things can become so tangled, so deeply set, they feel impossible to unravel. It's a direct transcript from the recording.

I can't get these knots to untie, There are so many on a short length. They have been twisted…. tightly forever. I can't get these knots to untie No matter how I try. It's as if they've been conditioned pulled tight wrapped around and around, molded, creating a knot that I can't untie.

Who is responsible? Who did this? Those knots are tightly tied.

The knot in the center is connected to the knot on its right and the one on the left, tighter than tight.

Why so tight? Why was this done? Those knots are tightly tied. Pulled….tight…twisted.

I can't get these knots to untie, No man can untie these knots. They have been conditioned to remain tightly tied. No man can untie these knots.

What truth is hiding? What secret is hidden in the knot?
