:) We're in sync! I used "shrapnel" in a recent poem too. Cool word - grateful the Muse nudged me when it showed up in the thesaurus - Jenine Bsharah Baines

…oy each solitary moment before it has passed, 
to hang on to each precious morsel of fleeting time 
like those shredded bits of shrapnel 
kept hidden in back pockets 
of a ruptured, sutured mind.
