where the broken healers are

A poem on a weathering love

Less a bitten lip and sultry glance,

across a tenebrous bar,

than a bitten tongue, and second chance

when rash words would go too far:

There's the heart of true romance,

Where the broken healers are;

A weathering love's a deep, deep dance

to the song of the grace-kissed scar.
