Anne Mikusinski
Interlude
Tonight's pipe dream
Is littered
With tiny notes
Written in my second language
Hidden
In different rooms
When found and read aloud
You laugh at my accent
Soon silenced by a glare
You draw close
Removing them from my hands
To kiss my fingers
Bio
I've been writing poetry and short stories since I was seven years old and most probably making them up long before I could hold a pen or pencil in my hand. I find inspiration in music and art, and sometimes, even little things that happen every day. My influences range from Robert Frost and Dylan Thomas to David Byrne and Nick Cave, and I hope one day, my work will inspire others in the same way these writers have inspired me.
