I Will Keep Broken Things

I will keep Broken Things: The big clay Pot With raised Iguanas Chasing Their Tails; Two Of their Wise Heads Sheared Off; I will keep Broken things: The old Slave Market Basket Brought To my Door By Mississippi A jagged Hole Gouged In its sturdy Dark Oak Side. I will keep Broken things: The memory Of Those Long Delicious Night Swims With You; I will keep Broken things: In my house There Remains An Honored Shelf On which I will Keep Broken Things. Their beauty Is They Need Not Ever Be 'fixed.' I will keep Your Wild Free Laughter Though It is now Missing Its Reassuring And Graceful Hinge. I will keep Broken Things: Thank you So much! I will keep Broken Things. I will keep You: Pilgrim Of Sorrow. I will keep Myself.
