「觀蛋記 egg-pilogue 」
(儲存在蛋殼中的碳酸鈣被分解並吸收到胚胎的骨骼中。
在孵化過程,堅硬的外殼會發生變化。
在雛鳥獲得力量掙脫蛋殼前,
其堅硬的外層會發生變化,
從非常堅硬和結實變為非常脆弱。)
這一個具有無形形態的外殼,
它可能是你,
是你的血肉之軀。
它可能是他,
也可能是她。
是他們贈予的第一個支持。
讓你從搖籃走到墳墓。
如此循環往復。
也許有一天,你會以相同的形式-
保護著如此脆弱和精緻的東西。
保護著你那珍而重之的。

Egg-pilogue
(The calcium carbonate stored in eggshells is broken down and reabsorbed into the bone.
The protective covering changes during incubation:
from sturdy to brittle right before the chick gains strength to break free from the shell.)
The shell later takes on an invisible form.
It could be you,
Home to your flesh and blood.
It could be him,
It could be her,
It could be the first ever support gifted by them,
Holding you up from cradle to grave.
And so the cycle repeats.
Perhaps one day part of you would transform into a shell -
Protecting something so fragile and delicate,
Yet so close to your heart.
