Embraced

Maria Omena

Freedom

is in the touch

of bodies

cuddled close

with synapses

swapped

and stimuli

spread

over a surface

that saves,

         that shares,

                          that shelters.

Atoms mix.

An amalgam

spiced by sweat,

a fortress of flesh

that you hope
will last.

Editors for Embraced not yet setup.

Testament is the second stand-alone anthology produced entirely by the Ta Voix team of aspiring professionals, which now stands at around 300 contributors from around the world.

This work is a testament to the skill and passion of the team, and of their voluntary commitment during one of the most difficult times through which many of us have ever lived.
