this reminds me of that Japanese craft where they take a broken china pot and piece it back together with gold between the cracks. The name escapes me. Japosparklecrackle?
Nope thats definitely not it.
Alas, I’m too lazy to google it.
BEautiful poem by the way Jacob.
The same thing basically. Kintsugi (“golden joinery”) or kintsukuroi (“golden repair”). the underlying message is : understanding that the piece is more beautiful for having been broken.
Yes, I fell in love with this concept when a friend introduced me to it last year. It’s a seed of hope for damaged people. Making lemonade out of sewage(sometimes lemons just don’t cut it).
Eyes + Words 
Wow beautiful, i can relate,
as more broken pieces continue
to cover over my last discarded broken pieces…

Ah I see – so Kintsugi is like a nickname. Hey maybe the inner circle just call it Roi.

It is indeed a beautiful concept. I wrote a poem along those lines. Using love to heal a broken heart. Will probably share it someday.

Go on – share it!
After all a poem unshared is like a … something unsomething’d.
(amazing metaphor to follow)
