Pushed away: Fennel
“Offer me a hand and watch me speed up.”
It runs hard and without pause, refusing assistance from anyone as a point of identity, and the independence has an agitated quality to it, less like confidence than like somebody outrunning something. A mother who rejected from the womb onward left it with no working experience of being carried, which generalised outward into a sense of being on its own in the largest possible way, unattached to anything above. What it asks for is one task completed with help that was accepted before it became unavoidable.
It echoes Io, driven from country to country by a small relentless goad, unable to stop anywhere long enough to be recognised, with no part of the journey chosen. The form implies a task: to stand still long enough to see what is actually doing the driving.
