I will fold myself into these words
paper crane myself into a bird
and fly
fly far away
from reality
transform the landscape with
words cut from the pages
of those who have flown before me
I will fold myself up tight
become something else entirely
transport myself somewhere else entirely
fly far away
a paper crane in poetic lines

Beautifully expressed, Bree. I loved these lines in particular,
“transform the landscape with
