Inner Spaces During COVID-19: Mount Meru

poem
Keywords:

COVID-19 pandemic, inner spaces, Mount Meru, poem, psychohistory

fluffy
soft rose petals
flowering my skin
a warm place to rest, belly full
this is mine
golden nectar
cardamom pods and rose water
flowing from lord shiva to goddess parvathi
out of matted hair and cobra’s ecstasy
in endless union of eternity
when bundle of things laid down
bringing relief
go away
i want to run and play!
