Baking

A Poem by Colleen Kelley

Like an egg on the
side of a mixing bowl, you
cracked me -

my insides spilling out,
leaving me shattered
and gaping

I find myself liking this really quite a lot.

Hah... Interesting, indeed. Such a short poem, but yet conveying so much information. I am not sure what your experience was (if there was any) which lead to the creation of this peom; however, it does conjure up some interesting memories for me which I can label with this poem. I love your comparing a cracked egg to the breaking of this person. Very nice.
