Weaving

flexed muscles pulled taut under skin

stress twisting veins and arteries in its

hard and unforgiving kevlar

instead of the delicate and inefficient furling of my lungs

i yank my breath to unravel 

one string and then another

fingers burning from the friction

i remind myself

it's all about the heat anyway

What do you think? First post! Is the lack of capitalization a good style choice or overdone?
