Stitch
Koshur Qalam challenge prompt 4 poem by Dr. Koshy AV
When there was no stitch
left to cover my victimhood
between those who had pawned me
and those who thought me the spoils of their gambling
you stood as a blue cloud
surrounding me
saving me
"Extend the border of your mantle
over me"
be I Draupadi or Ruth amidst the alien corn
listening to the nightingale
be you Krishna or Boaz
in the ancestry of the line of the chosen one
Jesus
"Cover me"
