Anna's Hands
“Anna's Hands”, a poem by Aida Takyrbasheva published in Edible SF, June 2026.
She taught me Kyrgyz bedtime prayer
and culinary magic,
Hoping her hands
will trace the muscle memory
she tried to instill,
of kneading dough
and steaming rice in plov.
The Art of heART
“The Art of heART”, a poem by Aida Takyrbasheva published in My Dear Valentine, February 2026.
The sacred chakra number 4,
Whose rhythm is powered by prayers galore.
It dances and beats to the pace of vitality
Creating a force of electric reality.
Unlike its commanding neighbor — the brain — 16 inches apart,
Its deadly precision earns its name — the heart.
But the real magic of the coeur we hold dear, is the compass it holds within us so clear.
into me SEE
“into me SEE”, a poem by Aida Takyrbasheva published in Fine Lines Summer 2026: Volume 35 Issue 2, June 2026.
when was the last time you allowed yourself
to see and be seen
peeling the layers of protection one by one
exposing the scars you held onto so deeply within
until the scar tissue formed was ready to be shunned
to see into me, is to be seen — and the fear of being seen is the price of this level of intimacy.
