Dismantling

The taking apart,
Amputation of a healthy part. The 
Re-carving to define each 
Groove between fingers 
Now that it has no hand to
Hold. The sandpapering of
Broken shards to wear down
The dangerous sharps
That stick out in memory.

Dismantle me, so that I may
Take up more space again,
Till I grow to fill a 
Bed alone again.
