Ripples: Poetry by Deborah Beachboard

<

            Heartpains

            Issues of speech sounds
            (something like a promise)
            fall suddenly, helplessly
            into ruins -
            like a figure carved in crystal
            becoming
            unexpectedly aware
            of the sphere of mortal life -
            the shards spill a haphazard course
            thrusting into the area
            of least resistance.
