division

Individuals divide

Only under enormous pressure

Geological and seismic insults

They divide into fractions

Incomplete sentences,

Lost nouns, lost predicates

Lacking syntax without context

Missing in action

[The They]

This is fantastic. I love how the metaphor flows from that of a huge earth moving magnitude,to the minuteness of the lack expressed in the fragmentation of language. Beyond that, I also like what this poem expresses. Our individuation that separates us from each other leaves us -at best- incomplete and, at worst, totally lacking a consciousness of our own reality (missing in action). Great write, i liked it a lot
