To The IED Once Strapped Outside My Chest,
I am still wrapped around
and bound to you in flesh
and the shrapnel you set free
is now, in effect, only pieces of me
unwound in multiplicity to clothe the four winds
in cipher and logic dressed down as zeros and ones.
By the way, thank you, Ferris. I don't know where my manners have gone these days.
If I could like a comment, Ferris, I would do just simply that--as I'm sure you know, overexposure leads to absence of curiosity.

"you've got to know your history..."
Like a ballad to the death of innocence.
You always manage to pack so much power into short lines, it's always a refreshing read.
Be well.😁

Tumbling down I passed myself on the rising wind
This is without doubt one the best poems I have read, here or anywhere.
