Bending and Breaking

Bending and Breaking

Being limber
Accelerates
The cause,

That
Breaking point
Where
Affirmations
Pause.

Just up
To it,
The rings
Of smoke
Appear,

And then
It is,
That truth
Be told,
The final bell
Is near.

Breaking
And bending,
Bending
And breaking,

The parts
Consume
To leave
The room,

And after
There,
On sheets
Of hair,

The tatters
Of the loom.
