A Conversation

.
In the distance
in the background
in silence
like a memory standing
by the bottles
filling with wine
Egairia
is wearing a poem
for safety

a cage of protective words

At the end of the day
Leenaiyos
lets her take off
her shield

and Pahn meets her
beneath the barrel trees

where
only the vulnerable words
in columns
like ribs
cover her breast
.
