contrapuntal: the flightless
a poem
A contrapuntal is a type of poem format that you can read from top to bottom, or from left to right. It is basically 3 whole poems on one page, left column, right column, and merged.
This was heavily inspired by a wonderful essay: the bird that never flew by meesh . She writes so beautifully.
I would love to hear your thoughts, interpretations and analysis of this poem in the comments! I had so much fun writing this.
love,
afifa
