Poetry by Miggy Angel

Vision Vis-A-Vis

The room is
black, moonlight

immune. You’re
back in the cage

again, having
sworn to change.

It is not too late,
the tulips are still

two lips opening.
The universe

has not reneged.
Renegade, fire

awaits. Waif, stray,
awaken.
The Seed

The soil cedes
to the seed and
is succeeded by

space, a chrysalis
where, sheathed
in earth, supplanted

by sun and rain, the
icon of green stem
begets the labour

of the ground’s grand
gesture: without
surrender there are

no flowers.
