CRACK. KA-POW!

The pieces,
they project into the hearts
of those surrounding me.

Slicing through their
thin delicate
chest cavities.

And when my heart-pieces
collide with their
whole hearts,

they explode,
and so do the
hearts.

And then their
pieces fly into others’
hearts.

And it is a
fractal pattern
of heart-shattering.

Except opposite of fractals.
More like a ripple effect.
For fractals shrink and ripples grow.
