Vases – A Poem

This is sort of like a free-verse haiku (jiyuritsu haiku) though it even stretches that definition a bit. Sometimes what you want to say defies a format you typically use.

Vases

All vases are broken.
Many have difficulty accepting it,
Pretending they are whole,
Clinging to what they know,
Strong in their constancy.
Shards no longer fear a thrown ball.
