This is not a draft

by Alexandra K. Parapadakis

 

I don’t want to mask my poetry

I want you to understand me

Curse your perfect rhythms, rhymes, haikus

Wait, conceptualise, draft, redraft

I can’t!

I: skeleton

by Alexandra K. Parapadakis

Face like stone

Hard to read

I find myself taking pride

In my totem pole

Of expressions, I can hide

Masterfully deceptive

Every bit secretive

All heart without sleeves

And just letting everyone watch

That is true strength

True power

Is knocking down this tower

Being bare

Just a sk...
