Windless Inhale
[Woke up with some Button Poetry the other day from my favorite writers and was inspired to write this] You know that feeling when the soul leaves your body through your mouth and your inner organs shift with the sudden room and remain there… …floating… suspended in time in the moment when everything became aContinue reading “Windless Inhale”
