10 - Panic

Breathe

In and out and

The air is full of glass

shredding me until I can join it

particles of diamond

glitters of silver threads

Breathe

In

and exhale

slow

one

breath at a time

You can do it.

  1. You really manifested the sense of struggle with this piece. Again, your use of language and imagery is transcendent. "The air is full of glass / shredding me until I can join it / particles of diamond / glitters of silver threads"... your juxtaposition of something seemingly beautiful but inherently dangerous is unforgettable. Keep writing, Elizabeth!
