WALLS ARE
D2 WOMBWELL EKPHRASTIC CHALLENGE

Bed bent wall bound,

less human now as

broken into this square.

 

Run five fingers

feather light, to

feel walls behind

these closed eyes.

 

A stony glance

holds a soul

eternal captive, hate

an emotional geometry.

 

Stone four squared.

Secrets whispered

ear to ear.

Shed tears, wet straw.

Awake, a greeting of

dawn light under the door.

 

Dream in winds

and creaking trees,

a soul free to run

and run,

until breath is not sufficient.
