Singular Setback





When I was a child
I thought that
Just as I had
two eyes
two ears
two arms
two legs...

...So also I must have two hearts...

That would've come in handy.

When I was a child I had a certain wonder about me, wrote about it in prose form (?). Thought our veins were hung inside skin like worms in a balloon... And yes, a backup heart (second, third, fourth, etc.) would have helped since the first one got broken over and over again... That's life.
