A show of force

Plug
up the
gaps, turn on

the
gas jets,
learn how to

live
without breathing.
It's a strategy

that
works well
until the day

when
someone, some
thing, happens to

break
the glass
& the subsequent

metal
on metal
spark triggers an

explosion
that rushes
outwards but shares

its
epicentre with
the precise point

where
you began
to simultaneously implode.

An
equal force.
An opposite direction.
