the murmur of peace
steps across the sky
untouched
unfazed by the gunfire
and gunfire?
that is just another way to
die without trying
the murmur of war
silent in words and impossible
to escape
you carry drones on your lids
so every time lift them
another life slides
the murmur of life
breathing breathing
another son dies
Your verse has such a unique aesthetic: It isn’t raw but not structured either, but perfectly suits your themes. I’ll admit that I was wary when I saw the images. You can deconstruct that statement! But then I read your About page and read your poetry. I’m glad I did.

This left me speechless,Arushi.
Such beauty that felt so intimately marred with a distorted sense of reality.
