my new carapace.
I am queen of the dungheap.
I am the sole black
chess piece in the white air of morning.
I’m winning

under this bright blanket of lights.
When I get home I’ll slip it off,
smooth as graphite erased.
Aditi Machado’s poetry has appeared in journals such as Eclectica, nth position, tongues of the ocean and others. Her opinions and obsessions appear on her blog, Blotting paper.
