  1.  The broken heart's dice look like marshmallows --
       sweet, mushy -- then burnt to a crisp.

  2. What does a broken heart do
    while waiting for the other shoe
    to fall?  does it cry boo-hoo
    or try something new?
    does it play solitaire
    or disappear into thin air?
    what does a broken heart say?
    is it silent as stone,
    chilled to the bone?
    Does it scream like that painting?
    does it come close to fainting?
    What is it waiting for?
    to do something more
    say something more
    be something more
    restore
    explore
    open another door
