breaking

tension climbs the apex
beyond this point
there is more damage than
intended than
necessary
force of power waters eyes
powered and powerless with sadness and rage
where there can be no more
here
bone breaks
distributes pressure, climax through cells
drama and passion stopped
in regret

There is a beauty in how a bone breaks when it can no longer take the pressure put upon it. It is most obvious in skull fractures that spread out like star-bursts, but all bones break for the same reason: a compromise to save as much as possible. Anyway, I was thinking about my forensic anthropology class while walking around today.
