Favorite Quote:
"I always entertain great hopes." -Robert Frost


A splintered breath catches somewhere
in the place between your collarbones and
trachea
you wish you could find it and
reclaim it
but you
instead are left to stumble
over the words that were
wheezed
when it hit
like a deftly flicked
pin
the anomaly
regretfully
was a
fifth
of a sentence
and your eyes wheel
whorl in way
of a figure-eight search
then drop down
with remorse
as your wrought insides lurch
