Spine
My spine is a light fixture
hanging, lifeless but beautiful
illuminating hope and warmth
but so easily turned off
with just a switch
my spine can be darkened
My spine is the trunk of a tree
with limbs and stems
slender but sturdy
but so exposed to danger
with just one chop
my spine can be destroyed
hanging, lifeless but beautiful
illuminating hope and warmth
but so easily turned off
with just a switch
my spine can be darkened
My spine is the trunk of a tree
with limbs and stems
slender but sturdy
but so exposed to danger
with just one chop
my spine can be destroyed
