NEW HORIZONS by Kani Krishnan

My play of words are born of each day’s anxiety and autism that lavish my mind in a polished way. Reality speaks often in a poetic riddle that needs an answer. My life is an answer to that riddle. New Horizons is born of peace amidst turbulence, harmony amidst chaos, love amidst fear. Grateful for the ever widening horizons.

Floating around my ears

Registering their own

Unique intent

Inviting me to explode

In tangential thoughts

Forming millions

Of unwritten
