Traces

an old wound

By Michele NampalliPublished 5 months ago 1 min read

I share

a breath with your skin

frost on wide windowpanes

our warmed air

as the rain pours from heavy clouds

deep into the ancient red well

echo es

of hollow s

on surface rock s

***

I'd soft strip your under-jaw with my canines

a familiar musk

coats my tongue

***

I'd pour into you with blind eyes

***

Wild lies

About the Creator

Michele Nampalli

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.
