A tip velociting across the salle
Spring in jubilant pursuit
A clip that decompiles in the very
Middle of the bout
Tape
shreds
Wires break
Screws
split
Set aside this injured weaponry awaits
A therapeutic touch
At least these mechanical defects
Can be repaired
MY bits deconstruct almost as often
Shedding parts and
Shredding key connections
Torn and bent and stretched too far to
Rebound
Technically these biologic parts
Might heal on their own
But even odds they’re simply settled in an
Altered state
Demanding adaptation
Is it any wonder that
I want the best of both?
Snap-on parts that interchange
With just a bit of fiddling and force
The ease of healing that will come with time
Regardless of attention
Let’s try it out—
One blade left in the bag (don’t peek!)
For seven weeks to see if it will heal
One finger sternly told to snap in place and
Hold the line
Yeah, I’ll tell you how that goes
