It's what you *didn't* do
I've broken a plate,
yet never a bone,
always left to fate
how the branches have grown.
A night cap to acclimate
when breaking boughs chaperone
that sharp shivery weight
of dreams never shown;
body laying prone,
a messy scene sewn
before your bewildered state.
Do me the honor of reserving this date,
and remember the time as my eyes dialate.

HI, Cait!
I enjoy poems that force me to ponder and this is one. I love the complexity of the piece and how you leave the deciphering to the reader it satifies my sapiosexual desires. Brava!

What can I say? Every line is condensed and concise. You capture a lot in what you have to say. The brevity with the deep contemplation, and emotional analogies through metaphor and environment, are pretty original. Nice and "creative" visual with the "branching" and "cracking." You definitely have the gift. Keep putting pen to pad, and I hope to see more from you soon!
