A Quill Shall Suffice

By Anubhav Kashyap 

I shall keep it brief, my love, for your watch holds no time, 
I tore my throat and ushered before you, 
my words, oh my words, they were all I could afford .

I crackled the leaves, smelled the rain, stubbed my toe ,
with the wind to keep me company and the soil,
to fill my guts, a quill shall suffice to write-
the nerves beneath my skin, a quill, shall suffice.
