Mapped. Wanderings along hidden roads.

I saw this picture, and it called this to mind:
“But I know it’ll have to drown me
Before I can breathe easy,
And I’ve seen it in the flights of birds, I’ve seen it in you,
The entrails of the animals, the blood running through,
But in order to get to the heart, I think sometimes you have to cut through.”
From “Heartlines,” by Florence + the Machine
There is no map better, or more treacherous, than the map of the heart.
