Shattered and stifled: pulverised by a distracted difference ego.
Allow me to rebuild these sore wounds that cruelty has so created,
Assent deliquesces: thus allying, these splintered searing shards aglow
And with thriving cement, assure enshrine this once so shattered form;
Thus building a real recompense and so waxing into a whole once more.

I think your lyric has some interesting qualities and I like the 'thriving cement!' What does the title mean?       Elsie

On my facebook page I have a thread called "word porn"  I tend to use the sight when I am in need of inspiration. The title of the poem comes from a thread that defines the word as: "(n) (Ver Phrase)  to repair with Gold or precious material, a peice of pettery, in the  undunderstanding that the piece, is more beautiful for having been broken. 
For a while I had been battling with the imagry of a broken pot, and  the spiritual connections, the solution was Kintsukuroi.
