a solid changing its mind, turning rigid order into liquid possibility one wobble at a time
means To turn from solid to liquid through heat, or figuratively to soften emotionally or fade away gradually.
from From Old English 'meltan,' to become liquid, rooted in a Proto-Germanic source and ultimately a Proto-Indo-European base meaning 'soft' — a cousin of words like 'mild' and 'mollify,' all circling the same idea of yielding, of hardness giving way.
