What's So Hard To Understand About It?

Folder: 
Thought For Food

broken rosaries

for broken promises

broken nooses

and loose harnesses



shattered stain glass houses

for stained shattered glass bubbles

overflowing cup

the loosed vine and cherries



cut down fruit trees

cherry pits in the backyard

rosary beads by the door

in shock you slip on



but what did you expect?

what's so hard to understand

about it?



action, reaction

cause, effect

blind grasp

give the eyes back



the book of the heart



broken roses

with stolen petals

crown of thorns

for flowers in the hair



cut down fruit trees

burning in the fire

two figures, one your daughter

and scattered petals



but what did you expect?

what's so hard to understand

about it?



action, reaction

cause, effect

blind grasp

give the eyes back



the book of the heart



the book of the heart

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I thought the title both made sense to what played in my imagination, and was ironic to some peoples reaction to the clarity of the words : )
