the simple way we fit together
interlocking with the shy
mocking femme fatale –
You’re butter on a
poppyseed bagel
or coasters on the coffee table
my very own sea raven.
you’re gin and tonic on a
parching summer’s day
a perfectly aged cabernet
a prepossessing paramour.
heavens sent celestial animation
saved me by resuscitation
you’re peanut butter and jelly
cut into fingers
the frost kissed trees in
all the winters.
About the Author
Kit is an introvert who’s creativity is expressed through multiple mediums. Their writing often deals with the tension between what is (real) and what is not, with some of their poetry examining the uncertainty that comes with simply being alive. For a long time, they’ve struggled with accepting themselves for who they are, and it’s their dream to create a space in the world where everyone is free to be themselves – even if it’s just while reading a poem.
