The Broken Harm
October 17, 2014
he is a blue cluster of regard
staring with swollen eyes of a trembling bird
supple mitten claws reaching me.
I took pride in assuring him he could do me no harm
rain to firecrackers
everything soft and subtle.
rubbing against granite would hurt me more
than unhitching his grip on my corners
i’d sooner die than hurt at his hands -
azure slopes, cobalt peeks
