In Vino Veritas

Info

The old monster is out again;

And, it left glass shards on the floor.

I stared at me in those pieces.


Hands reached to grab a small fragment.

Piling them in a plastic bag,

Blood replacing glass on the floor.


Long ago, I winced... the pain.

Now, it feels like Monday morning;

Something that usually happens.


Seconds passed. Glass gone and blood-free,

A bloodied rag and plastic bag,

Covering the scene of the crime.


It wasn't your role, fixer.

They made you believe it was.

You're wiser now. See the bullshit.

When you realize your childhood is literally ending while your washing dishes..
