I seize the night sky
18 March 2024

It started
when they constrained me
they harboured
brittle talks
It is within our own walks
that we are steady

Bear no spate
every tongue too weak
to relate
what we speak
the strength within our backbone
only skill to hone

They drown me
within scores of sheets
My name tag
it repeats
Foe within chest as I gag
spewing remedy

My chest weighs
a hundred kisses
like feather
moss and heather
everything my heart misses
that their henchmen raze

Levelled grounds
witness the lost heights
Dire straits
steer off sounds
Composure of lost powers
plunge from high towers

Open eyes
speak to me of sighs
Love wholesome
within bosom
opening my wings to fly
I seize the night sky

Reading of the poem:

Нас бьют, мы летаем
