WILLIAM BONFIGLIO

TO PIECES

 

I was afraid once
that I’d encounter
a knife or needle so sharp
it’d slit the bonds
between my body’s atoms
sever the links
of my solid form
and
there I’d be
standing over the sink
slicing a bagel or
sitting on the edge
of a bathtub needling
out a splinter and
I’d fall away
unravel.
