by Bunganí Zungu
At a distance; round
pumilus' hyoids wrap
and rise between the muscles;
pad' pad lulled their lips;
lassoos long and a blink
chewed and chewed.
Pumilus sticks to the theme of Hunger, literally and figuratively. There are elements of longing, the feeling of loss which manipulates one's wish/desires for some faraway tie.
