The X-Ray
of my broken wrist is filed among the CDs I can’t throw away
written by: Jenny Middleton
every sunken scar is a sign
of injury and of healing
of a needle’s piercing to darn
every sunken scar. Is a sign
of a wound, a music of living
drunk into my flesh, of its thorn?
every sunken scar is a sign
of injury and of healing
