A short piece.
by Marcus Jonathan Chapman
standing on a pile of pain
touching that middle star
in Orion’s belt
where grandpa said he’d be
waiting for me
dancing on floor made of
cracked and splintered bone
skin stretched thin
scarred pink and white
I dance, heals chipping scabs
fingers reaching for the stars
