Fragments


a word, a phrase ~ here, there

slide past me on the stairs


flashing by in a blink ~

only a glittering comet tail…….


ideas balloon and pop

colours splash and rain……….


frayed flowers of poetry, of story

maybe even a stodgy old essay…..

take time and care to bloom.


“The beauty of a fragment is that it still supports 

the hope of brilliant completeness.”

~ Tobias Wolff
