The Diversion - Exploring Brokenness: Poetry on Pain, Anger, and Human Flaws

The Diversion

Told he should not
Feel anything,
That he needs to
Push it down until
He, supposedly,
Can barely remember,
Erase it with some
Type of substance or
Surrogate behavior,
Chaotic flashes of a
Past best left behind
But never far away,
No matter what
The diversion.
