Identity Crisis
By Debbie Feller

Cut with a child’s purple scissors
in an attempt to keep
our identities safe

a hundred tiny squares of paper
blow across the lawns
dropped, spilled, torn

as messy as real life
picked up carefully
with hands, rake and broom

plunged deeper down
into hiding this time
the can lidded tight.
