It's just poetry, it won't bite

Broken, Haiku of Injured Relationships


04.10.10 Posted in today's words by

R Martin Basden of Norfolk VA has written about his muse (Interruption), a moment of transcendence for a child with autism (Distracted), the ravages of Alzheimer’s Disease (No Safe Passage), and devoted romantic love (I Have No Memory of Love). This poem is also about love, love lost this time. With his wide-ranging themes and his lovely language, R Martin Basden keeps us reading, no matter his subject of the moment.

By R Martin Basden

Small pieces rattle
In the hollow of my mind
Of the whole once ours
