What does it feel like when the feeling subsides, watching what we've done.
Suddenly, I am present again
along the cold shore of wisdom
and I stand silent--

there is a me not presently missing
but underneath layers of sand
from glass that was broken
by my rage years ago...


--silent but for the gentle rustle
of his complaints
