Head on the concrete
like glass on the floor.
Shattered pieces show
a reflection from each.
Every blood drop shed
on the newly jagged edges,
shows a different image
of that glass that is no more.
The people rush around,
each grabbing their small piece,
“I knew this part well you see,”
and “see this piece I found?”
While she picks up the biggest section
‘Cause she certainly knew it best,
and sees in it, her own reflection,
before laying it to rest.
