Sigrid Ermine Poet Free verse

Carpet Supports

Cavernous rooms bellow
        tomorrow's departure
        Void pools desperation

        Mangled clothes, makeshift pillows 
        My hair collapses on your coat-hanger chest
        Its curtain opaques trepidation 

        Foot worn wool fuzz carpet
        Absorbs awaiting absence 
        Limb clinging disturbs fibres

        Summoning static air
        Captured, our fraught
        obtains courage
