While shredding leaves (poem)

On the road when I was a small child
while shredding the leaves of the hedge
I was walking along the road

I’m sure my heart was also shredded
I must have been shredding my heart as well

No matter how many times I shredded and shredded
The pain that won’t go away
The pain of myself who thinks it’s hard
A pile of leaves that died instead

The leaves in the hedge
The society that stands in front of me
The society that stood in front of us

I would have shredded the hearts of others
Would have been shredded

Shredded and shredded
The anger that won’t go away
I’m so angry I can’t forgive myself
A pile of leaves that died instead

I was shredded into a pile of leaves
Someday I too will be shredded
I will be gently buried
