regarding the fragmentation compulsion

the attempt or urge to disrupt sequencing and linearity
BECAUSE IT IS COUNTER TO THE EXPERIENCE OF MEMORY AND the narration of history
is itself OPPOSED to the experience of loss

WHAT is more linear then loss?

wait.

fractured and fragmented narratives as methods of memory recall
of traumas or griefs and PIECING togethers that
concurrently and are ever always
rebreaking apart

but

still STILL still STILL seem to function reparatively? a nearly unconscious function of the mind?
to reclaim through fragmentation and pieces
to disguise the full gaping never-more-
the goddamnit nothing
the 'good and' gone of it.
because

if i were (you we were) to tell it 'truth'fully'
just the facts, man
(attempt to induce the experience
in the reader: the lack)
there'd be no going back
and not even pieces - just
a shot in the dark and then -
