Broken Fence Poem by Sheena Blackhall

Broken Fence



My son soared through the broken fence of living
Before his time, a black balloon
Flying too high to the sun

Each night I rehearse my death
In the halls of sleep
Each night I feel the cords of living
Slacken, tugging, anxious to be off
To join the invisible ones in the loft of the sky
