Shattered

Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)



NOTE: I'm not too sure about this one!! What do you guys think seriously?? Do I need to Revise and work some more on this one??? How does it sound to you guys???


Like an Explosion of Dynomite

Like a Bomb that Ignites

Like a Grenade that goes Boom

Gives out vibrations of fuse fumes
 
Or a Cannon that Fires Off

Or the Hands of the Clock that

Goes Tick and Tock

Or of the Firweworks that Pop

Or the speaking of

 these words it won't Stop

Or the Substance of Mat

The talkative people of Chit-Chatter

Because of the sound

of the Glass that Shatters

Do you think it Would it Really matter

DID YOU HEAR THE SOUND OF GLASS JUST
 
SHATTERED???
