Au naturel,
In front of the mirror, they stand out bright,
amateur painter’s perfection on my thigh,
subtle, suave and natural as nature,
hugging my body, catching every eye.

Arundhati
ILLUMINATION

I write because i’m aware of the power words have. I use mine to tell stories, occasionally rant on social issues and turn my life and self into poetry.
