A splintered soul
Traverses many feet
And in its whole
Is incomplete
A smile today
Is weeping soon
Come what may
On havest moon
The conscious wall
And battered seam
A lasting fall
And ending dream
The catalyst
And remedy
The cast away
The many me

Liked the wobble in this one, though it took two reads to read.
What if you separated these lines?

When I read it outloud, a couple of line breaks helped.

I thought it would flow better as one whole piece just because it all had to do with the same thing...and I usually only seperate into stanzas with longer poems, or ones with extended meters.  Thanks for commenting though!!!

The story line flows well...beginning to end.  Very well done.  

btw your handle gave me a little giggle..just had to stop in and see what you were all about.  Glad I did *S*
