Palpable

PALPABLE imagine the silence of a plane crash if you were deaf imagine how intolerably loud a rape PALPABLE absorbing hearts transcending death absorbing fears enduring pain TANGIBLE in the newness of another day unwoven from slumber we glisten clean start anew FLAGRANT we busy ourselves with menial chores and cause then stare at books noveleyed CONSPICUOUS © Kim van Breda—


The Stirrings of a Bug

I have trodden many a creature under foot
A few, unbeknownst
The bug has an intolerably short life span
And shorter yet, under foot
Do I traipse out of spite or cruel wonder?
No, it is just my disregard and shortsightedness
For I have been trampled upon,
From creatures smaller than me
They stir upon me, feelings of a bug
A distant rumbling of thunder
As I count the seconds after seeing the flash
There is a heavy weight upon me
Imagine what is stirred in a bug
