littered...
littered
in bones
carnivores discard
their gnaw
as a natural
housekeeping
we too
leave piles
remnants
skeletons
closeted
to hang
in the balance
of
what ails
a stye
in the eye
soiled drawers
torn
inter-muscular
tissue
splintered health
as the memory
of slivered wood
embedded
under one's toe
nail pain
to orgasm
the gambit
grows
rich
uniquely common
ground down
too
in the daily fight
constant blight
overcome
in acceptance
again
and again
in repeat
effort
challenges all
big
small
in between
a revolving door
neither opened
nor closed
a paradox
a comedy
to laugh off
verses
the tears
of woe
goes
the victim
littered
in bones
