A scar is a healing. After an injury, a scar is what makes you whole.”– China Miéville

A scar makes you whole
like a life of miserable addiction
makes you a mentor to others
following the path. A scar
heals, more substantial than before,
a reminder, a memento,
like an amulet holding hope
of promised mojo,
moxie made substance.

Scars come from hurt.
If we can hold to conviction
of HP wanting good,
bringing rectitude when we trust,
injury can be welcome.
