Epiphany

into this moment
I fall

weightless in a space
no ground
no walls

oblivious
to past or future

it is
only here
I remain

undefined, imperishable

though my skin
may decay
and my bones
warp

  • And So She Grows Old  by Neetu

    she bends
    to the breeze
    allows it to twist her bones
    shape her arms
    to shade and protect

  • A Divine Bargain  by Neetu

    I see you will haggle over your wares
    sell them to me for the price I ask
    I know you have many gods
    little and large, in stock
