some things hurt,
and tonight i am
picking shrapnel
out of my flesh
from your words
and dropping pieces
into this fish tank,
watching them
through the glass
do that silly dance
objects do when
flirting with water.
thinking,
this time,
this time,
you won't sink me.
i don't know what
you were aiming for,
but you missed.
