I'm reconstituted, thank you:
broken streams compressed,
broken gleams pressed
out, broken, stressed,
starched and
hardly seen;
see the gurgling stream
of conscious effort,
a glued-together smile for
saying, 'I'm okay, you're okay, we're
all okay';
does all this gurgling placate, make
you feel good enough about yourself?
-If not, there's more glue on the shelf;
I'll apply here, rinse, repeat,
reconstituted, thank you.
