Ex Pluribus Veritas
Two origami figures
discarded in a bin
frustrated, incomplete
rustled into conversation
Hello who are you?
I’m a bird
but my wings are backward
I can’t fly
what are you?
I don’t know
some kind of an animal
I guess, that got crumpled
Hey you know what?
let’s refold each other
I’d like that
Look, undo this flap
put a new crease here
and here
now fold this way
Now it’s your turn
bend
close back on yourself
open this way
Like this?
Yes, press here
Hey, maybe we could
join up?
Like this?
Yes
And this?
Yes
This is nice
Oh yes!
Just one more fold
Oh wow
a bird dog!
No silly
a pterodactyl
