shattered

By Anna Lorena

Confident in skills and terms. Unbreakable Stamped on the bottom of the Pyrex bowl. Unbreakable Without fear of falling on any dimension. Unbreakable Then Suddenly Things Change And the dish tips Over the edge And no one believes It really occured. No one understands Accidents happen. No one understands We don't always have Control. Glass hits cement from fourty feet up. Unbroken? Impact turns the bowl into pieces- Pieces of a puzzle on the sidewalk- Missing bits here and there. Un-unbroken. And on one shard glittering in the bright sunlight Everyone else basks in Can be read one word: Unbreakable.
