Was it removed like an inflamed
Appendix?
Do you finger the scar and realise you’ve been misled
Into the slate desert where the candles
Never stay alight

But in the end
You look at those who kept theirs
Or had one transplanted from a willing donor
And wonder how you’ll ever get through the book you started
