skeletons

6. 15. 2008

Your hands and feet...
I like the bony places
where I can see your 
fragile framework.
Every interlocking part
that makes you -simply. 
Layers after 
that make you 
strong
smart
handsome
remarkable-  remarkably. 
Against all odds
against all expectations.
I like the thick skull 
that anchors your black hair

the deviated septum
that makes you snore
loudly
then quieter 
when I kick you.
