Fragile Portrait.

 My life pictured in a stained glass window

All the pieces in the wrong places

But still making sense.

I live a thousand lives in just one day -

Yesterday - tomorrow - all at once

In just one place - in one small drop of time -

A raindrop made up of a thousand rainbows -

A raindrop about to hit a pond

And merge into the slow flow of the water -

The pond reflects my face until a leaf falls -

My face shattered into a thousand fragments

Rippled on the dazzle of the surface.

Ripples of stained glass - bright pieces of a puzzle

Scattered out of sequence - but somehow making sense.

Watching the cars go by.

Pathetique Sonata.

Like Chinese poetry

This music confines sorrow

To a few black lines

Lines drawn on fine paper

By a wavering hand
