Curled up,
Coiled up
like a spring.
Packed away
trying to escape.
Am I small enough, yet?
Go ahead,
close the case.
Pack me up!
Ship me somewhere.
I know,
You, only see
a broken vase.

I really like this...
Something about it draws me to it and speaks to me. So often people look right through us and never see "us".
I thank you for entering
