Pushed away: Baked Goods
“Being wanted is how the trouble starts.”
It holds closeness and desire at a careful distance and arranges a life that runs perfectly well without either, which reads as independence and works as a bolt. The household it came from was uncaring, unreliable and willing to make use of it, so warmth arrived with a price attached and the young conclusion was that affection is bait. What it asks for is one warm approach assessed on present evidence rather than on the terms of the house that wrote the rule.
It echoes Sedna, promised away and taken out on the water by her own household, let go of when she held on to the side of the boat, who lives at the bottom now among everything that swims. The form implies a task: to notice whose hands those were, and that they are not the hands on offer today.
