Fragmented Spirit

Fragmented
i feel
so
fragmented
i
am
small bits
scattered over cement
glittering specks, dark lines
i don?t know
how
to reassemble myself

fragmented
i sound
listen
open my jaw
I gurgle, cough, gasp
a silent, violent scream
my throat cannot
recall
its primary function

a spirit in pieces
you see it
strewn everywhere as if on parade
you have power
you can stomp on it
smash it or you can collect the bits
and teach my hands
how
to reshape my tattered spirit
into vibrance.
