Promises Hearts Light bulbs Christmas decorations China dolls Fancy plates Windows (shatter) Mirrors Computers/technology Coffee makers – of course on early Monday mornings Dawns & days Silence Spines of books – oh how crisply they break Cars break down on the sides of dark lonely back roads People break up in public – shouting and slamming car doors Heels break on the way to the wedding Engagements break Long fake Fingernails break Ankles break Families break – nothing can make you feel so guilty and be so much not your fault Smashed pumpkins Favorite cds Flower pots Beer bottles – glass Sea shells kept in drawers for memories Waves on the along the sea shore Stitches sown in far away places on clothes sold by the millions. How many little fingers broke from sewing little broken stitches? Souls – not souls. Souls do not break. They split into pieces. Like amoebas. They split and split, a constant dividing – but no. Souls do not break.
