dirt under the nails   a little blood on the lips a little sunshine in the pit a little shadow in the room a little coffeee in the cup a little echo in the chamber a little buzzing from the fridge a little leaning in the stick man a little understanding in the chalkboard flower a little missing from the brain a little missing from the jet stream a little missing from the patched up valve a little missing from thesentence a little missing from the period a little missing from the bleach jug a little missing from the puzzle  alittle missing from the moon a little missing from the tree branch a little missing from the fire fly a little missing from the teacher and nun a little missing from the daycare kid a little missing from the afternoon sandwich a little missing from the strawberry in the dawn a little missing from the terminal-cancer prayer a little missing from the dog in the grocery store a little missing from the shade in the heat a little missing from the crying in the ward a little missing from everything but nothing was ever whole to begin with
