Much has been made


Much has been made of
“The erotic longing
Of ancient statuary”.

It’s no big news
That as a species
We long.

Who needs
History
To remind us of that?

Still, the fragments
Compel
Our knowing,

Offer us the
Certainty
That we are made of parts

And keep loving
Despite
Missing ourselves,

And still look
Beautiful
Broken.
