Read Poetry: I AM, by Eftichia Kapardeli

 

 
I’m the sun that heats up 
your frozen lips 
I am the night rain 
who hid the flowers 
Browses 
In the windswept hole 
And your wounded breasts 
I am the peace 
  
 
I’m your new one 
wings and freedom 
I’m your smile 
open intoxicating rose 
of foliage  
of your heart 
I am the rustling 
 
ΕΙΜΑΙ  
Είμαι ο Ήλιος που ζεσταίνει  
τα παγωμένα χείλη σου  
είμαι η νυχτερινή βροχή  
που κρυφά τα λουλούδια  
ξεφυλλίζει  
στο ανεμοδαρμένο ακρογιάλι  
και στα πληγωμένα σου στήθη  
είμαι η γαλήνη  
*** 
Είμαι τα καινούργια σου  
φτερά και η ελευθερία  
είμαι το χαμογελό σου  
ανοικτό μεθυστικό ρόδο

I AM, Poetry by T. Altman

 Genre: Feminist

I Am
I am the mouthy bitch
Who barks and bites
Rejecting your conformity
Refusing to bind and blind
Rallying against miso-dogma

I am the stirring corruptor
Who scratches and claws
Pushing out ruminating tendrils
Pure and enduring confabulation
Pulling in original virtue

I am the hostile oppressor
Who marks and jabs
Antagonistic slights incurred
Aggressively bunting venom
Amazingly enduring in self-form

T. Altman 2017

I am, Poetry by Allyson Olivia

Genre: Inspirational

I am
By
Allyson Olivia

Clear droplets falling from a gray sky,
making you beg for the sun.
Pouring hot into fine china, tea bag dipped to sip.
Shooting out of a hose, clearing the cluttered path,
powerful with every spray.
Turned off.
Torrential, ruining parades.
A mist, danced in.
Flowers flourish.
Falling from faces in pain.
Steaming, I whistle.
Ice, I clunk.
Contain, yet contained.
Towels soak me up.
Tongues lift high.
Kool-Aid stirred in, kids gulp.
Buckets of me put out fires.
You swim.
You drown.
I am still, reflecting the sun.
