Dark as roses, fine as sand
Feel your healing and your sting again
I hear you laughing and my soul is saved
On forgotten graves you cry


Crawl like ivy up my spine
Through my nerves and into my eyes
Cuts like anguish
Or recollections of better days gone by


.


say hello to heaven . . .

Kali


Illustration by: Kalyani Ganapathy 

I was looking for an illustration of Goddess Kali when this one came up. So beautiful!! This was made as a poster concept and design for Poetry in Public India, which is a movement that celebrates and upholds urban India’s rich literary tradition and local writing talent by displaying poems by women poets of all ages, sexual orientations and ethnic groups in public and cultural spaces across urban India. It aims to make women’s poetry freely accessible to the masses, at unconventional public and cultural spaces in urban India, through the creative medium of poster art.  PPI also assists local poets in reaching out to wider audiences through a free urban forum. The hope is to create a space and a movement, which enables the public to interact with powerful feminist verse and art.
