Profile

At 12:30 PM on June 16, 1963, Junior Lieutenant Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman to be launched into space. Using her radio callsign “Seagull”, she reported, “I see the horizon. A light blue, a beautiful band. This is the Earth. How beautiful it is! All goes well.” At 8.30 pm on December 20 1963 I was born and unlike the woman I was named after I have happily settled with exploring the inner spaces.

Game if you are

As rusty as I’ve been / I still sensed the match begin. / I recognised the sparkle / in the tawny velvet of his eyes, / I heard the playful timbre / in the volley of his words, / I was seduced by …

evidence

We broke the glass you and i / and its hard to know / who let go first / as it passed between my hand and yours / the pieces lay strewn across our hearts / but with the words of one who never takes…

Red again

Below zero to inferno / in one snap of your castanets, / one step of your ruby red shoe upon the dance floor / of a deserted dream, / a tango between your cherry lips and the fever pitch hum / of my…

Eyes of Assisi

Always when your eyes glide over to mine, / you peel away layers of lost years and / sentences left unwritten / wrapped around my throat. As with one exposing breath of a gaze / you reveal me, /…
