Glass shatters

to the ground

children scream out

in horror

Another drunken rage.

How easily

a broom

can clear a wall

full of forced smiles.

That glass is more like glass. Sharp, angry, reflective yet transparent. The line "to the ground", does it have more than one meaning? It could. I like it when line say more than one thing. some lines don't say anything. Maybe they aren't needed. Short effective and to the point. Your words are always sharp, going in one direction to one end. I like that. so many people can't focus their thoughts.

Melinda, very nice. In nine lines you communicate an entire childhood. Wonderful work. Ray
