shyamli twice over

1.

Tread slightly.

Feather-like,

wisplight.

Tread.

As my baby sleeps.

Sound,

breathing,

((cuddled/ bundled,

in my delicate

Madding, Breaking

and slightly drunk it roams,

looking for a roof to hide under.

Shrugging my tempest queen.

Sifting for grains

of certain amber crystals.

The storm has come.

The plague is, upon us.
