Featured Poet of November 2016
Awake
My Spirit is delight,
though,
I know not why.
A mischievous scent whisks by as auroral whispers roar.
The earth shivers beneath feet,
calling the feral instinct that lurks at each fingertip.
The air chants at ear,
arousing the delirious warmth tucked away in my chest.
I’ve never felt so vicious,
So Awake.
