"How do I look" (rough)




What we are without
a soul--a spirit--a thought

Glamorous or unglamorous
bones--linked
to make a frame that
varies, one to the next

This frame covered in
palatable skins that cover us
inward and outward;
... can flex--can
bend ...

Various models--shaped
one way and so many others
a muse abused by time
and resistance and some, by
disrespecting ills

A collecting and expelling
of dirt, water and diseases
that kill the body they need
to live ...

Oh ... am I ...
so gorgeous and ...
perfect ... .
