I was a mountain by Melita White
One day, when I was six, I became a mountain
It was the day I yelled and screamed with righteousness into thick air, the air my only witness, while I sat on my bed’s soft bedrock
And with my pillow I swiped at that air, at the bed, at the enemy sitting next to me — her name was Injustice

Predator by Melita White
A smile that’s too large
A look in the eye
Too intense, unblinking
The predator spots his prey

Heal her by Melita White
Hollow clavicle seared with hot poker
Let the sun shine and hear her sing

Void like the arms of an empty hug
Fill them with flesh and please let it care
Hunger like the itch of an attention junkie
Feed her with love may it nourish anew
