"What Doesn't Kill You...." (by Joe DiMino)

It is not something
You buy to have—
Nor find
And legally possess;
But something more
You sort-of
Journey through—
Wrap yourself in,
Feeling the comfort of mink
Without the kill;

While nothing
Stimulates better—
Your remains
Sometimes worst
Than best—
Having gone through
The filter of love,
Made whole
Or crushed
And separated….
