ARUNDHATHI SUBRAMANIAM, BREATH: Contemporary Indian Poetry

1.11.1

BREATH

“Breath stranger,
ancestor, friend
that does not leave you anything but that,
a brand of air on the skin.
Advises that nothing
there is respectable,
in a set of family,
when the doors of the cabinet are closed.

Advises that this land
wild and naked desire,
is simply,
or not so simply,
body. “
