Taniesha Vaswani Poems

Gossip murmurs lies
Giggles question nature
Grunts and growls across the room fly
Gurgling fountains concealing melodic cries
...

Beleaguered by the brutalizing cries for the brawler, stood I; a boxer misunderstood
The palpitations of my heart discordantly pacing with the dehumanizing snarls; the jury's jeers
The overture to the chapters of torture avowed with the closing of all doors
Reviving, revoking and compelling me to reminisce the imprisonment of my body; confined with the spirit of fears.
