Smoke Poem by Kanishka SricharanPratap

Smoke

Rating: 5.0


This smoke is:
Our spell
Our chant
Our meditation!
Only for your welfare.

The rest
Of the earth
Water
Air
Sky
We will immerse
In the smoke!

You would be
Searching... and searching
Your lungs
Heart
Liver
Corn fields...
Everything,
Searching
In the smoke!
