such a wise statement for a poet of such youth. your mind is obviously matured well beyond its years...which is what i generally like about your style. although the swing my have shards, in time...a breeze will sweep them all away and you'll realize that everyone is full of dangerous edges when they're young and growing. lastly...if life weren't an explosion, or if it were even a predictable one...would it be worth living?

Just wow. There is so much to be said for how such succinctness provides such a huge punch. Beautiful piece!!!

Wonderfully written!
