Nipple

This entry is part 21 of 34 in the series Small World

 

Mouthpiece
for the body’s instrument.
Its silence is another language.

Mountain peak.
It makes its own
wet weather.

Mouse-pink
& sensitive as a newborn
through old age.

Missed bit
of a continent submerged
in the unconscious.

Mouthpiece.
The scuba diver
can’t speak.

    Two mountains and the valley between.
    Two hands and a heart.

    Two lips and a throat
    singing an old tune.

    A small hungry mouth
    clamped on the nipple

    as if life depended on it.
    Life depends on it.
