As a particle in eyes

Wounded desire.

- By Bollimuntha venkata Ramana Rao

A to Z Challenge  of the Alphabet " Q" along with today’s prompt of NaPoWriMo which requires a poem of  erasure or recombination. My mission is to create a poem, either by erasing words from the paragraph, or recombining the words that are already there from a paragraph from Annie Dillard’s book, The Writing Life.

“I pulled down the curtains. When I leaned over the typewriter, sparks burnt round holes in my shirt, and fire singed a sleeve. I dragged the rug away from the sparks. In the kitchen I filled a bucket with water and returned to the erupting typewriter. The typewriter did not seem to be flying apart, only erupting. On my face and hands I felt the heat from the caldera. The yellow fire made a fast, roaring noise. The typewriter itself made rumbling, grinding noise; the table pitched. Nothing seemed to require my bucket of water. The table surface was ruined, of course, but not aflame. After twenty minutes or so, the eruption subsided.”


"NAANI" Poetry


Sparks of fire
Heat on my face and hands
Subsided with water
Twenty minutes after Bathing


Sparks of fire
Erupts emotional strain
Words in heat unattended
When ignored slowly subsided


The above two,I believe, satisfies the NaPoWriMo prompt.Now,for the A to Z Challenge ,


Twosome in Night time
Cool Breeze under Moonlight
Heart speaks more than Mind
Quiet Moments


Design of Letters
With correct presentation
Targeting word's essence
