Fumble-fingered
butter-fingered
I drop the two of us
(bobbling away from clutching hands and slipping through grasping fingers)
and we explode-shatter
into a spray of shards on the floor
Bleeding from slivers and fragments
jagged in my skin
I pick us up again and again
But I'm not sure I can
piece us together
glue us together
And even if I do, won't I just
drop us again
anyway?
