Some sad poetry from last year

I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO glad I'm not in this place anymore:

Broken heart
Before I thought of eggshells
bleeding onto tiles
yolk dramatic against
a white background
its thin skin punctured

now I think about
machinery
grandfather clocks and gears
automobiles that seem
fine until you are on the
highway and it
sputters to a stop

There is something
wrong with my heart
and it has spread to my
whole body
the electricity is miswired
the screws seem like they are
all in the right place
maybe it is my computer
system processing malfunction

something is wrong
something is right
something is wrong
wrong wrong wrong
