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
...

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

Does someone have to lose
to have peace
"mem" or "emem" in Efik
spoken in Nigeria
...

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

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

The Altic root dictionary
a variation on "am"
to be quiet or sleep in
Tungus-Manchu Mongolian and Turkic
...

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