Physical enactment, psychological response. Psychological response, physical enactment. Fragility and strength, masculine and me, the skin masking the flesh. Built to break down, break down to build. My shovel, weight. Hollowness in my chest rippling through my throat. The pouring of grey concrete. My ears, my eyes. I sow the seed.
