    the broken

     the broken

    Enter- your refusal
    your eagerness to glance away
    I know you want more
    than you ever dare to ask.

    I've felt the trickle
    the steady drip....
    slowly wearing down....
    diluting, and coming back.

    Diamond bladed
    and double edged
    Is it still to dull?
    Show me where to cut it.

    I often wonder where
    to draw the line.

    Screaming out
    just to hear myself
    Reaching out
    to be touched just once.

    Torn fragments
    of empty words
    I stand corrected
    searching for my piece of mind.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
