Worm (a Poem)
June 24, 2013
Split him in half,
and soon two halves
become two wholes.
I wish for this ability,
for the knowledge of eventual completeness,
even as I fracture
into disparate pieces,
splitting in half,
and then in half again.
There are times when I feel even
all the king’s horses
and all the king’s men
could not put me back together.
How is it that from an infinite number of halves,
I cannot piece together a single whole?
