I regurgigate
fragments of life
forgotten – or
acerbic ones
giving me ulcers
I choose with care
reframe – inside and outside
present shareable aspects
hitherto unknown
or known but misunderstood
I understand so much more
shadows, demons
blocking light
which facilitates
both death and life
Creative Experiments and More 
I think that was count is that we try to understand

This is profound, Reena! We are incomplete puzzles… even to ourselves.

Regurgitation or reframing doesn’t change things but certainly helps us understand them and life better! Thought-provoking, Reena.
