Broken Strings

Broken strings

A thoughtless crime
Someone has committed
To my violin.

String curled,
Bow bent like a pretzel,
The neck is in two.

Grief struck me
To find something so amazing
Destroyed from anger,
Surely someone must pay 
For damaging my instrument.

I thought about it for a second...
I don't recall even owning a violin.
