You understood nothing except the piece of yourself you tore out of us and tossed at the fault line beating like a heart. I built this poem around the jagged wound, refired in the kiln of a sun who heard my silent bleeding and wept aloud for the breaking you had done. © 2025 Jennifer Wagner
My first thought was “wow” as well. This poem packs such impact - expertly rendered from a pain I would not want to experience. You are the sun ☀️ after all is said and done!
Thanks very much, Holly! ☀️🏜️🧡
