Detonate
Blindfolded, tip toeing,
arms stretched to the side for balance
as I creep
through the shattered
egg shells
scattered across the living room floor
scraping between the crevices
of my toes with every inch
waiting for one crunch
to set off the atomic bomb
next door.

Great imagery and use of a metaphor. I felt like I was there.
yes, very vivid
Oooo, as I sit beneath my soft blanket, I can feel the eggshells between my toes. Very immersive!
