Poem: Betrayal

 

Betrayal

 

a tree whose spine was stubborn not strong,

i felt the casual chop.

 

it didn’t kill, the wound,

but the disaster was greater because the axe was you.

 

years of blessings scattered in wind,

crucifying themselves on a fence of excuses.

 

who might dare to pass, ever again,

to collect the tender figs, fallen and bursting?
