The
pieces of this piece
Let
the words breathe
Their
way onto the page
This
way
No
one gets hurt
That
isn't already broken
See
the simulacra scene
Projected
in second hand screenings
of
second hand stores'
second
handed copies
Seconds
ticking away
Seconds
at a time
No
firsts within them
But
lasts in every one
Catch
no glimpse of heaven
With
eyes upon the scene
of
all these things they've seen
They
don't look for heaven here
The
eyes find other things
See
in them reflecting
on
the various
hells
or
circus
acts
All
the abnormal things
Or
the normal
Sub-standard/Standard
things
It's
not polite to stare
It's
impolite to turn away
It's
expected that you notice
But
not mention what you see
So
don't say a word
Just
breath
in
and out
Try
to look past it
as
if it's both there and not
That
way nothing
gets
hurt
But
what's already broken
No
sobbing seen
No
seeing scene
Just
breath the words
onto
the page
So
they won't be heard
No
one gets hurt
No
one gets well
Nothing
changes
Except
whatever does
But
that isn't for anyone to say
And
if they do...
Shame
shame
(same)
Just
breath the words onto the page
Despite
how they might read
So
no one gets hurt
That
isn't already broken
So
nothing breaks
But
what's already shattered
The
pieces of this piece
Breaking
down,
away, or through
The
pieces of each piece
left
fully up to you
