An Image Poem by Moushumi moushumi

An Image

Rating: 5.0


How many times I opened my mouth
A savage hunger,
An urge to devour;

How much I obsessed for,
The mouth now on the day-old chick
A pattered dropp of rain,
A thorough blame to drain;

And the day here comes
Not with the mouth,
A sweet, desperate vamp
Slowly chuckles the night out,
A deem, fade glow
Sustained all through….
