    //breath//

     When I whispered life 
    into paralysed old man’s ear

    the patients 
    in the hospital ward
    struggling to thrive  out pain
    inhaled the word,

    the old man’s body shook for a while
    and
    became motionless as before.

    I returned to dawn

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
