Precious Clasps

To pin like a word, to clasp like a vow.
The brooches and fibulae of Émaux Emoi are born of fire, copper, and symbol.
Some punctuate clothing like a breath of poetry,
others bind, close, protect.
Adornment or guardian, each tells a fragment of self,
to be worn close to the heart, at the crossing of fabric and the intimate.
