Push your hand in, <br />to feel the soft spot <br />white at the edges, <br />mold in the damp <br />fending off tears, <br /> <br />and something else. <br /> <br />Push too hard <br />and break the barriers, <br />feel the rank internal mush <br />and clench it in your palm- <br /> <br />raw emotion.<br /><br />Ayn Timmerman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/blighted/
