Just enough to let an ounce of breath slip through

The completed poster of “Just enough to let an ounce of breath slip through” was inspired by the poem “Imagine You Sleeping” by Katelynn Mirra.

Imagine You Sleeping

look
your naked oily flesh
caked with evidence of a day
ears hearing

what you’ll never remember

or

maybe remember
as a scene in a long
forgotten film

air fragrant as a capful of bleach

ear
pressed against
an upper limb lips
swollen pulled apart

just enough to let an ounce of breath
slip through

by Katelynn Mirra
