Despina Charitonidi | death of a star, birth of a cell

Iron becomes:

A shield in the core of the earth.

A skeleton in a building.

A pigment in my clay.

A cofactor in my blood.

A stressor in my cell.

Same protons.

Same electron orbitals.

Different systems.

Distractions and creations.

Highly charged mammals.

As an artist pretending to be God, even if my world is dying, I keep producing, just like cancer.
