Shards

A shard is what remains after something breaks.
Not a ruin - a fragment. Irregular, autonomous, complete in itself.
Each poem in this collection is a shard: born from a passing image, a sound, a silence - caught before it vanished.
No architecture. No continuity. Only the moment of fracture, held still.
Silver the Hedgehog moves through each one.
He does not explain them. He inhabits them.
