chipping away

distorted mikey

how broken does a vase have to be
before you try to fix it?
how many chips are too many?

I look in the mirror
and see a face like a doll painted poorly.
do you have a hammer?
I'm tired of porclain

I've been shattering for too long
its the holes that make me whole.
I'd like to be fixed, but you need to break me first.

take a knife to my bones,
and send me away with the broken boys

    like that anchoring spine of imagery
    and how you weaved your poem
    around it, with such free flowing ease..
    a wonderful poem, thanks for sharing
