Breathe
by Alex Grehy

Cut

Don’t cut

Orangutan

begged

with

her

eyes,

despairing

Uncaring, I

destroyed

her

forest

home.

Consume

Don’t consume

Protesters

begged

with

placards.

Mindless, I

devoured

more.

Fall

Don’t fall

I begged

the

ghosts

of

trees

for

air.

Vengeful,

they

dropped

me

into

the

polluted

depths.

Breathe

Don’t breathe

Can’t breathe

After a lifetime of writing technical non-fiction, Alex Grey is fulfilling her dream of writing poems and stories that engage the reader’s emotions. Her work has been featured by a wide range of publications including Siren’s Call, Raconteur, Bookends Review, and Toasted Cheese. One of her comic poems is also available via a worldwide network of public fiction dispensers managed by French publisher, Short Edition. Her ingredients for contentment are narrow boating, greyhounds, singing and chocolate. It is a sweet life, yet Alex’ original view of the world has led to her best friend to say ‘For someone so lovely, you’re very twisted!
