Accessories

They dangled on her ears:
walnuts, strung like pearls

And their weight
was a familiarity,
tickling her neck
when the wind changes

Unseen by a larger world,
unheard by ears plugged with sand –

She kept her sand elsewhere –
in her hair:
long, strong and accommodating

To those nomads
without a home.
