Title: Family Dynamics
Author: fengirl88
Fandom: Original
Length: 35
Content notes: no warnings apply; canon-typical angst.
Author note: A nonet is a poem of nine lines, in which the first line is nine syllables, the second line eight, and so on.
Summary: How it feels, some days.



What is this elaborate machine
constructed for? Why does it bear
so hard on me, battering
hope   breath   life   joy   to shards?
I gather them up,
fragments of me,
hold them tight.
Still here,
just.

That's a lovely poem. I'm sorry about the situation which has inspired it, but really like the poetic expression of your angst.

Thank you - writing about it was some relief, and
the nonet form felt like a good one for this. I'm glad you liked it.
