Vulnerability Poems
vulnerability is a reverse game of battleship
by Sarah A
it’s like i’m playing a reverse game of battleship
crafting my words with caution
guessing and choosing carefully what to reveal
hoping nothing i say
catches fire

The stare of the flat pupil
by Kamilla Letrai
Circularity is an overstatement.
Patterned like a Fibonacci spiral,
at the point of intersection, I warm up. Yet
the sunlight. Effortlessly. Passes through my chest.
Looking for a sign of understanding in your eyes...
The view is the empty sky. Ignoring one’s deepest prayers.
I am no stranger to beautiful, but empty sights
Dilated pupils. See them deepen, not ashore.

my aquamarine gemstone
by Allyson Sirois
clarity
faithfulness
ambition
and bliss
my aquamarine gemstone
stuck at the bottom of your abyss
a void of loneliness
as you described it to me
dragging you in deeper
