PIECE BY PIECE
You say that to analyze
me like taking apart
a clock is the way
you can build trust.
I admit I can be taken apart
without much effort.
Does it work both ways?
I remember when I was
a kid I would
take things apart
like clocks (or other things that moved)
and the parts
would end up scattered
around the floor in no
particular order.
I don’t recall
ever getting the pieces
together again.
