This Broken Heart from Christine Damm has it all – spikes and blood, distressing and piercing, a hole that’s crudely mended. It radiates both pain and excitement. The wires wiggle like new shoots.

The only clue Christine offers is the Kahlil Gibran quote that accompanies the photo on Pinterest, “How shall my heart be unsealed unless it be broken?”

Throughout the season I gather a stash of polymer hearts that I’ll share with you tomorrow. This one, however, deserved a category all its own and a day to think about broken hearts.
