Never Not Broken

Posted in Poetry by

I find it helpful.

In creating, the universe shattered itself.
Never not broken…
Never.

If not broken, no existence.
Nothing.
No one.

Life is suffering, we say.
We want to be whole.

Never not broken…

Okay, at least disappointment.
Never not disappointed.
Never.

Never.
You get it?
It will never be without the supreme fracture..
It is not even meant to be whole.

Never not broken.
The pieces don’t fit.
Remember this when it hurts.
