Michael J. Falotico Poet Rhyme

A Broken Poem Heard

All my words seem intact...
                                 A four sided poem of glass that will distract...
                                    On each angle it seems strong and right...
                                        But on the shelf it sits with no light...
                                      Then it slips as it struggles to be seen...
                                    And crashes to the floor where it cant' lean...
                                                        Broken
                                                                       pieces
                                                     scattered
                                                                        on the
                                                        ground...
                                                                          A       
                                                           broken
                                                                        poem 
                                                             that
                                                                        just
                                                             made
                                                                         a
                                                                  sound...
