Kimberly Burnham Poems

What if
reading a poem could improve
symptoms in Parkinson's disease
poem stories in action
...

A state of supreme pleasurable
satiety where there is a feeling
of enough and nothing more
called by different names
...

Autoimmune
cells fighting their neighbors
a multitude of languages
purposes needs misfiring
...

Known well
easier to learn a foreign language
at an early age
today teach a child
...

I said, 'My back hurts'
she said, 'let me tell you a story'
you walked in here wanting
something to change
...

Shi - the breath of life
they breathed life into writing and poetry
thousands of years ago
...

Clock ticking
big hand approaches 12
small one already counting ten
museum doors roll
...

smooth textured
elemental H two O
a pairing of
immeasurable
...

There is a saying
in Acholi spoken in Uganda
"Ka lyec ariyo tye ka
lweny lum ayee deno can"
...
