Ordinary Guy With Problems
Ordinary guy with problems
You’ve seen him around
Some of the places you go
He’s not caving in
Don’t have to be nice to him
He knows where to get a drink
He can be alone
Ordinary guy with problems
From ‘The Flame’ by Leonard Cohen
Kintsugi: the Japenese Art of Golden Repair
I want to know
what it feels like
for reconciliation
to wash over
my fault lines.
Take my cracks
and paint them
with gold.
Let me glimmer,
gleam,
and glow
redemption.
Illuminate my mistakes
and let my skeleton
frame out a museum
of triumph
