Stringy

[crow]

Hi crow: I'm so glad for your explanations. The imagery is extent and intense; full of connections; I still don't understand stringy as it applies to the writer and reader. And when you talk about the kite; you say climbed down on purpose because it was the bird finding the door. Very interesting. Best, Loretta

I don't want to do the explaining-the-joke thing, so I'd cut it at this, if I can--

Stringy is the texture of the meat/corpse of a starved bird. It's also a physical tether. And it's also symbolic for a transmitted STD.

I say climbed down bc the kite goes down. It has to come back up to find the "door" which is just a metaphor for the speaker.
