Poems on family (Nov 2026)

 

 

When the glass shattered,

I was trembling red,

it broke so easily,

the pieces scattered everywhere, lost and unseen beneath the furniture,

and I was already heading for the door,  wondering if

it had ever been solid at all, or just a bowl of shards assembled with delusion tape and

desperation to call a thing family.






Goodboy,

From the chaos, I learned to make a place seem orderly,

Tidy up, before they arrive, before they take away your things,

Before they notice somethings broken,

Before they notice that it's you.
