10 Business Days

a poem

By Michele NampalliPublished about a year ago • 1 min read

Frankly,

my beans are in the oven

and the bones are roasted

for flavor

Now if you had a thought

let it drip like grease on

my Under-pan

10 business days

for urgent

I'd be careful

closets have doors

Keep yours locked

And I'll keep mine

A torn worm knew you spoke in tongues

I believed it

and put her out of her misery

on that one blade of green grass

I hate beans

This space is breath for my sensitivity. The poems come fully formed. I've known for quite some time now that my art is about receiving more than creation...its the most natural way I know to process my inner world. It started when I was 7.
