Scalpel reflecting
In bright lights. Masked faces watch
Titanium aligning.
Mirror reflecting
Fine white line down center back.
My memento’s part of me.

You take the creativity prize with this response to the prompt. Most of us wear our scars proudly, but forget about the metal & plastic left within; smile.

Scars are mementos we won’t be throwing away. I have a fingernail that I injured in a sports activity as a child that I look at as I type right now although I usually forget about it.

A unique response to the challenge ~ I have scars myself, it is certainly a part of oneself ~

Thank you. I am usually good at throwing things out so I had to think of a more permanent memento.
