a scary truth
scars are bone-deep
an outer sign
of an inner shriveltwisting contorting
avoiding reprisal
fails in its task
constant safetyanything built
can be brought down
babbling terror
denying its pastto honor a new tomorrow
requires equally honoring
each checkered yesterdaysuch depths require plumbing
for a desiccated seed
in need of wateringtomorrow demands
its ancestor
be found honoredfollow proud flesh
to its marrow
to find our ’morrow
