Human


This wilderness of glass
Which casts
 
Distorted reflections,
Tormenting…
 
Unrelenting: Broken  
 
Face displaced
Into
 
Broken place,
Casting
 
Hard shards  
In  
Implacable
 
Onerous -
Sonorous in the senses.
 
Is it something  
In the brain,
 
Something in the mind,
 
Something  
In
The heart,
 
That is so very hard to find…
 
Is it just…
A part of this design
 
Of human
All too
 
Human.

Author's Note
I suppose this is inspired by the existential question:

Does everyone break bad?

Just reflecting on the things a friends
wife put them through, recently...

Sort of coming out of nowhere
with some rather impactful forms of madness.
