LIVING SPACE

There are just not enough

Into this rough frame,

someone has squeezed

a living space

and even dared to place

these eggs in a wire basket,

fragile curves of white

hung out over the dark edge

of a slanted universe,

gathering the light

into themselves,

as if they were

the bright, thin walls of faith.

By, Imitaz dharker.
